Tasting Note

"Working with a varietal from another country added a complex challenge to making this wine, but it was certainly worth the effort. The... (more...) 2005 Silver Nectar exceeded my expectations with its great floral aromas, honey, peach and apricot flavors and its firm acid finish. I'm excited to have the opportunity to work with the Torrontes grape and further grow our winery's relationships in Argentina."
