A beautiful and lightly spicy nutmeg character lights up this full-bodied wine from the first sniff to the lingering finish. The texture feels very rich, the pear-tart flavors are generous and the spiciness is intriguing. Hints of tannin and tartness firm up the mouthfeel nicely.

This white invites you in with floral, citrus and tame tropical aromas and flavors; otherwise it's soft, mid weight and integrated in oak. Made from Mendocino Wine Company's estate La Ribera vineyard, the grapes show off elevated minerality on the finish.
