The Napa Valley Fumé Blanc by Robert Mondavi from sunny California is a wonderful, smooth white wine from the Sauvignon Blanc (96%) and Semillon (4%) grape varieties.
The clear straw yellow colour of this wine is interspersed with golden highlights. The elegant bouquet unfolds lively aromas of lime peel, fresh lemongrass, followed by jasmine and orange blossoms, sun-ripened citrus fruits (lemon, lime) and subtle notes of summery flower meadow. A vibrantly refreshing, aromatically concentrated, expressive, full-bodied and at the same time round, supple feeling fills the palate. This American white wine concludes with a long, persistent reverberation
