Rappahannock Dry

Rappahannock Dry Wine Details
Price:

Description: Made from 100% Seyval Blanc, this is a crisp, dry wine. The natural citrus and spicy flavors of the grape with a touch of complexity from one month of French oak create the perfect accompaniment for seafood.

Varietal Definition
Seyval Blanc:
A French hybrid that is often thought of as "East Coast Chardonnay," or at least an alternative to same. Produced in a crisp, dry style, this white wine is often fermented or aged in oak to enhance the rather neutral flavors of the grape itself. It lends itself to service at the dining table and is food friendly. Seyval Blanc is often used in proprietary blends; good examples can be found from Prejean, Clinton and Château Lafayette Reneau.
