Yamantiev's Winery

2016, Dimiat/Muscat/Chardonnay/Aligote, Yamantievs, White, Drink now, Thracian Valley, 13% abv

Light, aromatic and fruity, unoaked white wine with delicate rose petal and citrus aromas that lead to a fresh and crisp palate. Very refreshing finish. Ideal with spicy cuisine and on its own! Based on the indigenous Dimiat but with lingering romance of Muscat and steely muscle from a ripe Chardonnay. Totally delicious!
