L’Alliance is a Bordeaux Blanc-style blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. The aromas bring to mind a tropical paradise, with lime, ripe melon, and lemon peel. The palate is crisp and zesty, with flavors of melon and white peach and a clean, lingering finish.
The Sauvignon Blanc is estate-grown from Lemmons Vineyard, the northernmost site in the acclaimed Crane Ridge micro-region. The Sémillon grapes are grown in our Block 20 along the Arroyo Mocho just East of Concannon Blvd and South Livermore Ave. This site has well-drained gravelly silt loam derived from river sediments. Here, the vines are naturally stressed from the gravelly loam that encourages deep root growth resulting in complex flavor development in the fruit.
