Sumac Ridge Meritage Blanc 1996

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA 50/50 blend of sauvignon blanc/sémillon. The wine has a solid straw color. A big open smoky, oak toast nose with grassy, grapefruit, floral and butter highlights. The extract is light but the wine is balanced enough to attract your interest. This is a very solid wine and a wonderful example of when the whole is better than the parts.Tasted: 01 September 1997Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
