Calona Vineyards Sovereign Opal Artist Series 2013

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaIf you haven't heard of the sovereign opal grape, fret not, because virtually no one else has either. This grape was developed by Agriculture Canada (maréchal foch x golden muscat) to thrive specifically in the particular conditions found in the Okanagan Valley. Grown by the Casorso family, this varietal is created exclusively for Calona, resulting in their exclusive claim to this unique and regal sounding wine. Delicate flower blossoms, light perfumed orange blossoms orchard pear, honeydew, light almond in a softer, fatter off-dry style. If you like the perfume of muscat grape, give this a try.Tasted: 18 March 2015Tasted by: Prices:
