TASTING NOTES
Our 2005 Heritage Blanc is a classic Rhône-style blend of Roussanne (32%) and Viognier (68%) from our estate vineyards and Vogelzang Vineyard in Santa Ynez Valley. It offers luscious aromas of peach, passion fruit and honeycomb with a hint of coconut. A round, rich texture boasts ripe flavors of apricot and pear. The finish is long and clean with refreshing citrus and mineral accents.
