During his long career, 20th-century artist Ernest Clayton painted over 200 watercolors of wildflowers gathered in the countryside around his Northern California home. Inspired by the gorgeous Blazing Star painted on the label, this luscious white is as elegant as Clayton’s work.
Blazing Star marries Viognier and Roussanne. Originally from southern France (where they star in opulent and pricey white Châteauneuf-du-Pape), these white grapes thrive in sunny California. In Lake County, specifically, a long, warm growing season gives Viognier and Roussanne ample time to ripen, while the moderating influence of Clear Lake helps retain freshness. You’ll taste that lovely balance here...
Look forward to perfumed honeysuckle aromas, supported by golden apple, ripe apricot, and tropical fruit notes. Lush and full bodied, this is a white that can stand up to heartier food pairings. Try roasted chicken, lobster, or hearty vegetarian dishes—or enjoy the wine all on its own. One sip is all it takes to understand why it won a silver medal at San Francisco International Wine Competition.
A must-taste for fans of luscious, flavorful whites. Secure your share of this exclusive California white today.
