Channing Daughters 2009 Envelope White (Long Island)

Country: US / Envelope
Variety: White Blend New York
Winery: Channing Daughters / Long Island

Aromatically intense, with notes of dried peach, orange cream and vanilla, this blend of Chardonnay, Gewürztraminer and Malvasia aims to push the envelope with its rich, almost-fluffy texture, and its penetrating red-berry, stone-fruit and citrus flavors. The grapes were crushed by foot, and skin contact was employed during fermentation. This is a decadent, unusual, oak-aged orange wine.
