Neal Family Rutherford Dust Vineyard Vermentino, Rutherford, USA 2023

2023 Rutherford Dust Vineyard Vermentino displays a star bright vibrancy in the glass complimented by ripe, fresh herbal notes of Meyer lemon flowers, bay leaf, lychee, and tangerine rind. On the palate the wine is fresh and playful, with subtle notes of crushed rock and juicy nectarine leading to a clean rich finish of lemon meringue and fresh baked almond cookie. 

Elegant and fresh, the wine is perfectly balanced with acidity and richness, a versatile wine to share over enjoyable conversation and pair with an array of fresh cuisine ranging from sushi, shellfish, grilled prawns with salsa verde to elegant whole fish with pesto and early summer vegetables like artichokes, asparagus, and peas.
