Autumnus White Washington

From the Pacific Rim Winery a fanciful new brand for two great blends. This Riesling specialist winery has blended Riesling, Gewurztraminer and Chenin Blanc. Combined you get the peach and apricot fruit of Riesling, the spice of Gewurztraminer and the floral tones of Chenin Blanc in just off dry style.

Hogue's Genesis wines are back in a big way. New wines and new packages, this Viognier is the best from Washington at anything close to this price or more.
