Common varieties include Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc and Zinfandel.

TASTING NOTES:
Lime
Grapefruit
Lemon
Our Sauvignon Blanc is light and lively. Energetic notes of lemon and lime create an exciting aromatic introduction. This wine’s profile may be dry, but ripe melon and zesty grapefruit ensure that it still delivers a generous amount of juicy fruit flavor.
