Kimsey 2014 White (Ballard Canyon)

Country: US / California
Variety: Rhône-style White Blend
Winery: Kimsey /

This blend of 70% Roussanne and 30% Viognier from one of the young appellation’s newer vineyards is a white Rhône done right, balancing restraint with ripeness. Aromas of beeswax, daffodil, yellow rose and ambrosia melon rind lead into a fresh, tightly wound palate of lemon mousse, yellow apple skins and cherimoya, all framed by a chalky grip.
