This is one of our old dreams come true. For many years we have wanted to supplement our winery’s repertoire of great red wines with a high-quality white wine that would be modern yet with a close tie to the territory. To reach this objective we blended Chardonnay, Sauvignon blanc and Viognier, three prestigious grape varieties that have been grown on our hills for years.
