The medium intensity nose seems quiet with aromas of lemon, white floral, and herbs with hints of apple, pear, lychee, and beeswax. The mid-weighted palate is fleshy and viscous with ripe lemon, white flowers, herbal flavours. The bright, juicy acidity hides the vague impression of sweetness, with notes of ripe apple, vanilla, lychee and beeswax joining the flavour replays on the dry, juicy, slightly bitter and leesy finish, with very good length Pair with grilled pork chops, Camembert cheese, or any kind of curry or Thai dish.

Over 30 years ago, MontPellier began as a joint venture between two wine industry families rooted in the belief that by embracing the balanced harmony of food, art, and wine, anyone could truly enjoy the uniqueness of the California lifestyle. MontPellier is a reflection of this ideology. True to varietal character and expertly crafted, the wines have stood the test of time and continue to exceed expectations.
