    This is a pure, clean, vibrant wine, modest in alcohol, with brisk acidity. Fermented in stainless steel, it features classic varietal flavors of oranges, apples, honey and vanilla that finish dry and spicy.

    Tangent's white wines, which are unoaked, get better each vintage. This Grenache Blanc is exquisitely sculpted with sharp acids and pinpointed minerals, and offers orange, melon and vanilla-honey flavors. A delight to drink, at a great price.

    Made with no oak, this pretty wine stars fresh fruit and clean acidity. With orange, honeysuckle, melon, mineral and vanilla flavors, it has a mouthfeel midway between a crisp Sauvignon Blanc and a creamy Chardonnay. Production was low, only 559 cases, but worth a search.
