55% Chardonnay, 44% Sauvignon Blanc, 1% Gewürztraminer, this wine is another little gem that I picked up. While the sweetest varietal is only used for one percent of the makeup, the residual sugar is high enough to make you think of a dessert wine without all of the syrupy-ness of them.
You get apples and pears with this as well as a hint of spice on the backend, with a little bit of acidity that brings it all together. Not something for everyday drinking, this would be best suited chilled with fruits or desserts.
