Introduction:
The 2021 Inglenook Estate Blancaneux is a beautifully crafted proprietary white blend from Napa Valley, showcasing Rhône varietals in a seamless and elegant composition. This limited-production wine is known for its aromatic complexity, rich texture, and refreshing acidity, making it a standout among Napa Valley white wines.

Terrior:
Sourced from estate vineyards in Rutherford, Napa Valley, the wine benefits from well-drained alluvial soils and a temperate climate with warm days and cool nights. These conditions enhance ripening while preserving acidity, allowing the Rhône varietals to express their full aromatic potential.

Appearance:
Pale gold with brilliant clarity and subtle hints of green.

Nose:
Highly aromatic, featuring layers of white peach, honeysuckle, pear, citrus blossom, and hints of wet stone and spice.

Palate:
Rich and textured with a balanced interplay of ripe orchard fruits, tropical hints, and floral undertones. Medium-bodied with vibrant acidity, the wine displays flavors of apricot, Meyer lemon, melon, and a touch of almond and minerality. The lees aging adds depth and creaminess to the mouthfeel.

Finish:
Long and elegant, with lingering citrus and floral notes accented by a subtle salinity and minerality.

Overall Impression:
A sophisticated and well-structured white blend that highlights the best of Napa Valley’s Rhône-style whites. Its balance of richness and freshness makes it an excellent pairing for seafood, poultry, and creamy pasta dishes.
