  Light golden yellow in color. Full, fragrant & attractive nose of ripe fruit aromas of grapefruit, lemons/limes & apples with overtones of floral notes of honeysuckle & minerals, spices & wet stones. Medium-light bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, round & lush, ripe fruit flavors of grapefruit, lemons/limes & stone fruits with honey and minerals. Lingering crisp finish. Drinks quite well at present but may develop further with additional aging. A blend of 48% Grenache Blanc, 14% Roussanne, 14% Viognier, 12% Marsanne & 12% Vermentino.
