This perennial favorite, named after owner and winemaker Fred Brander’s late daughter, exhibits remarkable balance and extraordinary zip with this 2015 vintage. A toothsome blend of 37% Sauvignon Blanc, 38% Pinot Gris and 2Riesling, this shows as a very pale gold in the glass, and opens with aromas of honeysuckle, and fresh lychee nut. The beguiling palate, generous and piquant, echoes the lychee nut found on the nose, and also suggests pink grapefruit zest and native California sourgrass.
