(Smasne Cellars Aligote Upland Vineyard Snipes Mountain) Pale straw colored. Very lightly aromatic with spice, straw, and hazelnuts. The palate is broad and medium bodied with a fleshy, textured feel drinking just off-dry. An intriguing bottle of this very seldom seen varietal that could pass for Chardonnay in a blind tasting. 13.5% alcohol. 45 cases produced. Sample provided by winery. Recommended
