Wine Review: This kitchen sink white blend is very pale yellow. It opens with a fragrant citrus like bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, crisp, and zippy. The flavor profile is a zesty lime and green apple blend. The finish is dry and very refreshing. This is a very nice pool wine for a hot summer day. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: "This premiere vintage of Summation, our white wine blend, mingles refreshing flavors of honeydew melon, apricot, pink grapefruit, and white pepper. Added hints of honeysuckle and a creamy mouthfeel result in a soft, dry wine that is excellent for food pairing or simply sipping." — Randy Ullom, Winemaster
