Lately, I have been trying a lot of white blends, falling in love with Seven Daughters, as well as Evolution, and on my last wine run, I found this little darling.

Comprising Chenin Blanc (34%), Chardonnay (17%), Roussane (16%) and Viognier(11%), this wine presents a nice well-rounded assortment of flavors where no one particular wine is jockeying for a dominant position. The Roussanne tempers this wine nicely, while the Viognier more or less gives it a nice gamey-ness.

I can say nothing more but that this wine for now is a solid 9. Pick it up.

We believe in finding something that you like the taste of, outside of the basic brands that you have been force-fed over the years through a combination of ethnically targeted advertising, and what people in your family have historically been drinking.
