Not so much

Not sure I'll be having this wine again. Too much oak.

Calico White
Bergevin Lane Vineyards
Columbia Valley, Walla Walla, Washington
$18.99

We picked this up this weekend and thought we'd give it a try tonight. Sadly the oak was too much of a predominate flavor for us in this trio of blended grapes. And the alcohol was a little redonk...13.99%. I want to taste the grapes, not set my mouth on fire.

From the bottle:
Calico White is our delicious blend of Chardonnay, Viognier and Roussanne grapes. This is a crisp and fresh wine with enticing flavors of citrus, tropical fruits and apricots.
