Violetta, Napa Valley

Violetta, Napa Valley Wine Details
Price: $75.00 per bottle

Description: This botrytis-affected wine is extremely rich and concentrated on the palate, exploding with honey, apricots, almonds, and crème brulée. The Chardonnay component (60%) of the blend contributes flavors of ripe pear and baked apple, while the Riesling (40%) adds rich, concentrated apricot flavors and floral notes to the bouquet. Hints of clove and cinnamon from French oak aging and a slight truffle undertone from the botrytis add depth and complexity. The finish is long, persistent, and smooth. Available only through the winery.
