2022 Ferrari-Carano Fume Blanc North Coast

Winemaker Notes:  This wine opens with enticing aromas of pineapple, mango, peach, lemon grass, and lychee. The palate offers ripe fruit and crisp citrus flavors of yellow peach, apricot, pear, lime zest, and lemon cream. The Fumé Blanc has bright acidity and crisp freshness from the cool, stainless steel tank fermentation, while the subtle oak character from neutral French oak barrels adds body, complexity, and depth.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Wilfred Wong - "The 2022 Ferrari-Carano Fumé Blanc is delicate, pleasing, and well-balanced. TASTING NOTES: This wine offers aromas and flavors of apple blossoms, Fuji apples, candied fruit, and dried herbs. Enjoy it with a plate of lightly-grilled Dover sole and white asparagus."


James Suckling - "This is aromatic with crunchy gooseberries, lemon peel, garden herbs and white flowers. Medium-bodied with a zesty, slightly phenolic character and crisp, lemony acidity. Flavorful finish."
