Kirkland vintner Bob Delf continues his collaboration with Alder Ridge Vineyard in the Horse Heaven Hills and Upland Vineyard on Snipes Mountain for this Rhône-style blend of Roussanne (55%) and Viognier. Aromas of white peach, Asian pear, lime peel, quinine and baked apple lead to a rounded mouth feel of apple sauce, honeydew melon and pear. A bit of spritzy acidity in the finish allows for a joint farewell of peach pit and lemon oil. This wine also is available at Nectar’s tasting room in downtown Spokane.
