Libido Blanco 2019
The sun bore down on the sandy patch of old vines, the young man carefully adjusting the leaves and trimming here and there as he walked down the rows. Wiping his brow as he cut a leaf away from a plump green cluster of grapes he thought, "your wine will be a just and refreshing reward for these hours under hot sun." Adjusting his straw hat he continued down the row, carefully tending each vine.

Tasting Notes
On the nose, a hint of white flowers and green melon give way to a touch of lime zest. Bright and refreshing on the palate, it shows soft notes of cantaloupe and tangerine that resolve into just the tiniest hint of sweetness on the finish.
Winemaker Notes
Libido Blanco is our take on the refreshing white wines so many Spaniards enjoy on the warm days there that so closely mirror ours here in Temecula Valley. For the 2019 vintage we selected four grapes, Chardonnay, Vermentino, Verdelho, and Albariño, each giving a unique flavor and aroma component to this tasty wine.
Food Pairing Notes
While excellent alone this is a great choice for fish tacos or mango habanero chicken breasts.
