Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Wine had become an integral part of George Radael's hotel career & inspired him to purchase land in the Napa Valley & Georg Rafael Vineyards was born in 1996, now run with his son Marc. Aged for 10 months in neutral French oak giving this CA wine a French flair. Light straw with stone fruit and citrus aromas. On the palate crisp apple, peach and Asian pear flavors with vanilla and citrus notes. Lingering, nut like finish ending with a mineral character. Very Nice!
