Fleur Bleu 2020 BLACK

WINEMAKER NOTES Our 2020 Fleur Bleu (French for “Blue Flower,” pronounced flur bluh) California Black Muscat celebrates the return of one of our most popular varietals in our portfolio. This young contains some dissolved carbon dioxide which allows an extra burst of flavors in the nose and mouth. If you like Jolly Rancher or Twizzlers, you are in luck. With aromas of strawberry, raspberry, watermelon and citrus, this Muscat is round and syrupy in the mouth. This lower-alcohol, sweet wine has a short to medium-length and an aromatic and fruity mouthfeel. It is crisp and acidic and will mellow nicely a few weeks after release.
