Momentarius Monticello White Blend 2022
This wine is a blend of barrel-fermented 53% Viognier, 31% Sauvignon Blanc, and 16% Petit Manseng, the most commonly planted white grapes in the Monticello AVA. The wine is gold in color with pronounced aromas of white flowers, orange blossom and acacia that precede aromas of Meyer lemon, stone fruit and ginger. On the palate, the wine has a bright, mouth-watering attack that is softened by the unctuous mouthfeel as notes of citrus and fresh green grass lead onto stone fruit, peach, apricot, and pineapple; hints of Pina Colada and ginger add to the wonderful complexity of this wine. The finish is complex and long-lasting. The wine has everything: balance, intensity, complexity, and a forever finish.
