2003 Vidal Gold

2003 Vidal Gold Wine Details
Price: $35.00 per bottle

Description: Harvested at -10 degrees celsius during an unexpected fall freeze, the 2003 Vidal Gold was fermented and cellared under highly reductive conditions in order to maintain the Vidal grape`s natural brilliance. With crisp acidity, sweetness, and aromas of apricots and tree fruit, the Vidal Gold makes a great wine to serve on its own or with a sweet dessert.

Varietal Definition
Vidal Blanc:
A white French hybrid once widely planted in the south of France, it is more suitable for growing in warm and humid climates like the South. These vines are prolific, producing large golden berries, suitable for eating out of hand as table grapes. When vinified, Villard Blanc makes a fruity, mildly intense white wine (somewhat Sauvignon Blanc like) of fairly neutral and simple flavors. Primarily used for blending.
