Another well made Palmina alternative white. Nice roundness and dimension without ever feeling heavy or cloying. Perfect acidity to keep it bright and clean.

Nice mouth filling and full body wine reminds me of a viscous viognier or Rousanne. Spiced pear and apple with some decent acidity. A unique and enjoyable varietal.

Petaluma Wine Group BYO at Seared: Ripe peach. Rich but dry. Creamy with a little oak, vanilla, dry finish. Not sweet. Heavy weight for a white wine. Could lead to some interesting food pairings.

Palmina: Medium yellow color. Wow, this is such a floral/tropical medley on the nose: lychee, pineapple, kiwi, green table grapes, honeysuckle, wow – I feel like you could dab this on your neck like perfume and smell amazing for a few hours. Medium-bodied on the palate, the zesty acidity balanced out nicely against the plush tropical fruits. I get guava, pineapple, lychee and mango, but it’s drizzled with lime and ginger and topped with flowers, flowers and flowers – and some mountain stream minerals. I’m usually less a fan of this much tropical and floral intensity, but this is also a nervy, refreshing and profoundly easy-drinking wine. Delicious. A light 12% alcohol, this is aged 12 months in old French oak. One of the best non-Italian examples of this grape I’ve tasted.

The nose is floral, white flowers, lemon verbena, some just ripe white nectarine, & passion fruit Palate is prounced flavors of citrus orange or tangelo, stone fruits, a slight herbal note, savory ginger, lingering finish, great acidic backbone and concentration of flavors have a bottle left will revisit in a year or two.
