Tesoro "Darling, Treasure"

Tesoro "Darling, Treasure" Wine Details
Price:

Description: The "darling" of our cellar, Tesoro (Vidal Blanc) reveals layers of citrus accented with delicate flavors of Melon and Pear. Its sweet sensations refresh the palate with a clear, uncomplicated finish. This wine pairs easily with a wide range of foods, but we love it with our Pepi Di Vittello (Banana Peppers stuffed with Veal Risotto). The perfect complement to the mild heat of the Peppers! Un vino perfetto di estate! "A perfect summer wine!"

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.
