2019 Karas WhiteArmavir White Blend more |
9/17/2022 - HRT wrote: NRBlend of 50% Kangun (native to Armenia), 40% Chardonnay and 10% Viognier. Straw, light yellow in color. Lemon peel, citrus and floral nose. Medium weight with lemon on the palate. Quite dry and it's hard to pick-up any of the characteristics of Chardonnay or Viognier. It's a very well made wine and drinks like wine 2-3 times it's price. Great effort. |
