2020 Tarpon Cellars "Cambaro" White, Clarksburg AVA, California

Product information

ABOUT THIS WINE:

This is an incredibly fun take on an easy drinking Spanish white wine, with most of the blend being comprised of Verdejo.  The small amount of Muscat Canelli provides intense aromatics, with Meyer lemon, honeysuckle, and geranium on nose; white flower and jasmine also combine for an incredible bouquet.  Peppermint and lime zest linger on an entry that brings to mind sipping sprite on the beach. Grated lemon and salinity complement a body that expands horizontally and includes fennel, citrus blossom, and Bermuda grass.  Finish of grapefruit zest and stone.
