Galena Creek White

Galena Creek White Wine Details
Price:

Description: It's made from the hybrid Vidal Blanc grape and is a refreshing alternative to the ubiquitous Chardonnay. This wine is dry, crisp, and has citrus and ripe apple overtones. A portion of this wine was fermented in French oak barrels which adds unique structural and flavor elements.

Varietal Definition
Vidal Blanc:
A white French hybrid once widely planted in the south of France, it is more suitable for growing in warm and humid climates like the South. These vines are prolific, producing large golden berries, suitable for eating out of hand as table grapes. When vinified, Villard Blanc makes a fruity, mildly intense white wine (somewhat Sauvignon Blanc like) of fairly neutral and simple flavors. Primarily used for blending.
