Aromatics jump out of the glass with honeydew layered over tropical notes of passion fruit and papaya. On the palate, this wine has a refreshing acidity with zesty flavors and hints of fresh-cut herbs. The finish is mild with a smooth touch of white summer peach.

The 2021 growing season in Santa Barbara was mild, with slow and steady development from bud break to harvest. Spring winds and rain were scarce, which allowed for a favorable set. With little in the way of extreme weather or heat spells in the summer, the fruit came in with great flavor and acidity. After grapes were harvested, they were gently pressed to stainless steel for fermentation.
A perfect complement to herb-driven dishes, pair with garlic shrimp and asparagus risotto, falafel with cucumber sauce, or chicken breast with an herb basting sauce. Enjoy poolside on a warm afternoon or as a rejuvenating end to a day on the slopes.
