This wine is 100% Sauvignon Blanc Musqué. The grapes came from a small vineyard block named for Virginia, the 4th Nichelini child, born in 1896. The grapes were hand-harvested during the cool nighttime and slowly fermented with no oak contact.
To create a Sauvignon Blanc that is a cross of styles of California (fruit forward) and New Zealand (crisp with herbaceous aromas of lime and grapefruit) that are unique to this beautiful, noble grape.
This wine has beautiful aromas and big tropical flavors of passion fruit, guava, pineapple and citrus, with a medium-light body. Perfect poolside or for a spring or summer outing.
