Vinum Cellars 2012 White Elephant White (California)

Country: US / White Elephant
Variety: White Blend California
Winery: Vinum Cellars / California

This is an intriguing combination of 59% Chenin Blanc, 25% Roussanne and 16% Viognier from a range of California regions, including Clarksburg, Santa Barbara and Sonoma County. Barrel-fermented and given some time in used French oak, it offers a tasty mélange of fig, guava and vanilla custard, a viscous mouthfeel and a crisp, complex finish.
