2007 DUE FIORI

DUE FIORI Wine Information

Varietal Composition: About 40% Semillon, 30-40% Flora, 20-25% Chenin Blanc, and the balance Orange Muscat (also known as Moscato Fior d’Arancio in Italy).

Flora is a cross of Gewurztraminer and Semillon made by Dr. Olmo of University of Calif, Davis in 1958, and the name means flower in Latin; the second flower in the wine name is the Moscato, hence the name Due Fiori (Two Flowers).

What it resembles: The classic Semillon blends are with Sauvignon Blanc, where Semillon provides body; we take a different path. Imagine good dry Semillon, as from the Southern Hemisphere, plus dry Gewurztraminer, plus dry but fruity Chenin Blanc, topped off with exotic citrus notes from Orange Muscat. Dry though, not sweet.

This wine is available exclusively to wine club members or to winery visitors---no sales to retailers or restaurants.
