Vineyard Notes
2017 Keenan Summer Blend, Napa Valley White Wine
Keenan's Summer Blend is a white wine composed primarily of Chardonnay. As with past vintages a portion of Viognier has been added to our Chardonnay. Viognier is a light-bodied Rhone varietal that has an intense, fruity bouquet showing ripe melon, peaches and floral aromas. In addition the 2017 Summer Blend contains a small amount of Verdelho, a white grape widely planted in Portugal and Madeira, and now starting to gain some popularity in California. The Verdelho and Viognier supply an array of fruit characters to the nose of the finished blend, while the Chardonnay supplies structure and additional aromatics.
The lighter body of the blend prompts us to add "Summer Blend" to the label. This is a great wine to enjoy on a warm summer evening. Aromas of ripe peach, lemon zest, and pineapple augment the concentrated floral nuances. This is a medium bodied wine with crisp acidity and mouth filling flavors.
