Thelema Mountain White - Sauvignon Blanc/Viognier Blend
This vibrant aromatic wine shows lots of peach and pineapple on the nose. The palate is medium bodied and smooth, complimented with a zesty acid on the finish. The Viognier adds weight and volume to the blend, while the Sauvignon blanc offers freshness and acidity.
Maturation
Great now, and will improve for 3 years.
Food Pairing
Cheese (especially goat cheese), Oysters or delicate fish like sole.
