Description

This set includes


2013 Etude Carneros Chardonnay


The 2013 Carneros Estate Chardonnay boasts bright, fresh aromas of quince, lemon, honeydew melon and pear. The lush, impressively concentrated fruit is mouthfilling on the palate and adds depth to the wine, but a backbone of minerality and lively acidity keeps it balanced and refreshing.


2014 Daou Chemin de Fleurs


A wonderful example of what can be achieved crafting a wineusing three noble and uniquely individual grape varieties. The bright fruit aromatics of Grenache Blanc, the rich and voluptuouscharacter of Viognier, and the mysterious, mischievous Roussanne are like the primary colors on a master’s canvas. Layers of tropical fruits, melon and fragrant blossoms engage the senses. Flavors of mango and papaya, with citrus notes and pineapple, merges eamlessly with honeysuckle and allspice accents. Luscious and velvety, sophisticated yet friendly, this wine has depth and personality and a persistent, heady finish of clover honey, ginger and cinnamon.Blend: 48% Grenache Blanc, 32% Roussanne, 20% Viognier


2016 Quintessa Illumination Sauvignon Blanc


Intrigued with making a white wine from Quintessa, Agustin Huneeus planted a small plot of Sauvignon Blanc at Quintessa estate in 2002. Intended for family and friends, this passion project soon appealed to guests of Quintessa and top sommeliers in the country. Today, this limited production wine is one of Napa Valley’s most sought after white wines.


The 2016 Illumination is alive with aromatic complexity, beautiful texture and bright fruit flavors. This is an incredible vintage and the perfect summer wine that pairs with a variety of appetizers and seafood...
