Channing Daughters Cuvee Tropical 2007

"We are happy to offer you a taste of sunshine with the release of our 2007 Cuvee Tropical. Possibly the finest version we have released yet of this cuvee, the 2007 is alive with white peaches, green melon, apples, minerals, white flowers, tropical fruits like pineapple and that undeniable, alluring grape scent from the Muscat. This straw colored white wine is bone dry, medium-bodied with moderate alcohol and a juicy acid balance. The wine is comprised of 94% Chardonnay and 6% Muscat with a smidgen of Pinot Grigio. The Chardonnay is the special musque clone from the Mudd Vineyard and was fermented in stainless steel. The Muscat also comes from the Mudd Vineyard and was fermented on its skins, then raised in new French oak and blended into the final wine. This is a delightful, gregariously aromatic, satisfying, jewel-like white wine. The 2007 Cuvee Tropical is ideal as an aperitif or as a match with mildly spicy foods and Pacific Rim flavors. The Cuvee is also at home with shellfish, white-fleshed fish and fresh cheeses. Our Cuvee Tropical is always comfortable with a variety of world cuisines from Japanese to Indian to Mexican to Caribbean to Spanish and back to American, so we encourage experimentation. We made 857 cases of this wine and it was bottled by gravity on July 15, 2008. Oh, and please do not drink this wine too cold - instead consume after just a few minutes in the fridge to encourage its jovial, playful personality. Cheers!" -The Winery
