Forgeron 2009 Ambiance White (Columbia Valley (WA))

Country: US / Ambiance
Variety: Rhône-style White Blend Washington
Winery: Forgeron / Columbia Valley (WA)

This lovely blend, inspired by the white wines of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, is 55% Roussanne, 27% Grenache Blanc, and 18% Viognier. Round and peachy, it’s vividly framed by fresh acidity and citrus rind. Just 20% new French oak adds a kiss of toast to the finish.
