The 2013 'Blindfold' is an excellent new release from head winemaker Jennifer Beloz. She has chosen to blend Chardonnay, Viognier, Roussanne, Marsanne, Grenache Blanc, Chenin Blanc and Semillon. Not surprisingly, there are highly intriguing layers of each that mingle. This was sourced from a host of vineyards in Napa, Sonoma and Santa Barbara. This wine begins with aromatics of orange blossom, poached pear, and hints of bananas foster. There are ripe flavors of banana, roasted pineapple, Pink Lady apple and a vanilla cream finish. Overall a nicely balanced and the lovely texture makes this quite appealing. (Best 2016-2023) - May, 2016 (OB)
