Ferrari-Carano Fumé Blanc

Description

This Fumé Blanc is a beautifully refreshing Sauvignon Blanc with a touch of oak that adds body, complexity, and depth. It is a 100% Sauvignon Blanc wine from vineyards primarily in Sonoma County and 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. This Fumé Blanc is partially aged in stainless steel and neutral French oak barrels. This wine has bright acidity and crisp freshness from the cool, stainless steel tank fermentation (70%), while the subtle oak character from the neutral French oak barrels (30%) adds body, complexity, and depth.
