As you would expect from a wine in the top-quality range, this North American wine, despite all its dryness, enchants with the finest balance. Flavor does not necessarily need residual sugar. On the palate, this powerful white wine is characterized by an incredibly light texture. The finish of this youthful white wine from the wine-growing region of California ultimately impresses with a good aftertaste.
