 Tasted by 4vino on 6/30/2017: Easy everyday quaffer (903 views)
 Tasted by bound4er on 8/21/2016 & rated 87 points: Shy nose of mainly creamy peach. The Viognier takes center stage on the palate with a flowery fruitiness that is hard to describe. Decent enough wine but one that lacks the energy and vibrancy I look for in whites due to its lower acid content. (1178 views)
 Tasted by KSWinegeek on 6/11/2016 & rated 89 points: Floral nose. Blend makes this interesting. Good value (1154 views)
 Tasted by awineo on 5/3/2016 & rated 93 points: Just bought another case. This is a great inexpensive white that is very quaffable. The 4 grape blend sets it apart from most of the other whites that are in our rotation. I recommend you try some. (1243 views)
 Tasted by wise_grandma on 4/8/2016 & rated 90 points: Really enjoyed this nice little blend of Viognier, Vermentino, Verdello and Sauvignon Blanc. Slightly flowery on the nose with some fruit and acidity on the palate. (1190 views)
 Tasted by awineo on 2/27/2016 & rated 92 points: White4 is an inexpensive white blend. The grapes go well together and produce what I consider an unusual fruit mix on the pallette.
Balance is good and price is right. (579 views)
 Tasted by Z1nnfull on 2/24/2016 & rated 88 points: Very pleasant Paso white blend, the 54% Viognier (assuming unoaked) comes through. It is medium-bodied and there is just enough acidity to make it food-friendly, but it would be a decent quaffer, as well. At $13.99, a good and different white wine choice. Got some citrus - sweet grapefruit, tasted no oak, is fruity but not as off-putting as some Sauv Blancs can be, although this is 9% Sauv Blanc. (412 views)

White Blend

"White blend" means the wine is made from a blend of two or more different white varieties - or in some cases a blend of pink or red varieties that are vinified white, ie. without any skin contact.
A blend of Antao, Arinto, Rouperio.

USA

American wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.

California

2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson
