Country: US / Oriana
Variety: White Blend Washington
Winery: Brian Carter Cellars / Columbia Valley (WA)
2011 is another excellent vintage for this unique and aromatic blend from Brian Carter. The mix is 51% Viognier, 35% Roussanne and 14% Riesling, and it offers a riot of scents and flavors; a rotating Ferris wheel with lemon skin, beeswax, orange peel, tangerine, succulent lime and ripe pear. It’s flat out luxurious, long and lissome.
