"Label: Year after year, the critally acclaimed Fume Blanc from Ferrari-Carano is bursting with melon, fig and honeysuckle flavors that explode on the palate with a refreshing crispness. Hints of spice from partial barrel fermentation in French oak add depth and dimention to this lovely wine. In keeping with our tradition of delivering high-quality wines, this wine was bottled using a cap closure to ensure the purity of fruit flavors and to retain its freshness."" """

- With 60% Alexander Valley fruit contributing distinct melon, pear and grapefruit aromas and flavors, the usually grassy, herbal qualities of the remaining 40% Dry Creek Valley fruit offer only a pleasant hint of green pea. This easy-drinking wine has a medium-weight body and a short, lime-tinged finish.
