Description: Light and refreshing, the nose of this wine is loaded with pink grapefruit, lychee and soft floral notes. Lively lychee and pink grapefruit dominate the palate of this wine as well, with hints of mineral on the finish. A great wine for sipping, and also to have with light pasta or seafood dishes.

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.
