Tasting Notes
The Grenache Blanc, sourced from the meticulously tended Duarte’s Vineyard, gives a base of crisp acidity and citrus. The Viognier, grown on our Estate, adds rich flavors of peach and intense floral qualities. Finally the Roussanne, our most powerful and rich white Rhône variety, boosts the body of the wine and adds in a twist of caramel apple that neatly ties the blend together.
Production Notes
44% Grenache Blanc, 38% Viognier, 18% Roussanne
Winemaker Notes
Esprit du Mistral is a unique new offering for our C ‘est La Vie palette of white wines. Inspired by the legendary Mistral winds that bring cool air down the Rhone River towards the Mediterranean, this blend offers an exciting insight into the possibilities offered by three of our favorite grapes, Grenache Blanc, Viognier, and Roussanne.
Food Pairing Notes
