Infographic 2017 Malvasia Bianca Paso Robles, California

Description

The history of Malvasia grapes is fascinating. Since ancient explorers brought them on their journeys they have grown on the islands of the Mediterranean. More recently explorers have brought them on to the New World. Grown in the warm climate of Paso Robles, California these grapes give off exuberant flavors. We love the notes of guava, passionfruit, and lemon that are tempered by herbs and exotic spices. This wine is in every respect a summer sipper. Fresh tropical fruit, natural sweetness, and a silky, viscous mouthfeel make this an especially lush pairing with the salty pungency of blue cheeses. Try opening this the next time you have a cheese board! Judges love it too! It took home a Silver medal at the 2018 Harvest Challenge.
