Corra 2019 Tail Feather White Blend

Product Details

Growing up in the Rogue Valley surrounded by the pear orchards for which Southern Oregon is well known, I learned early on that inhaling the sweet perfume of an orchard in full bloom was sheer bliss. In creating this unique blend of aromatic white varieties, I’ve done my best to recreate that light yet intoxicating perfume of my childhood. A vineyard which clings to the steep west-facing slopes of the Rogue River produces the combination of Muscat, Riesling and Viognier which blend seamlessly to create Tail Feathers, a complex, dry, crisp white wine. The aromas offer notes of white peach, lemon zest, and a touch of kiwi, along with a faint note of almond. The palate shows tropical flavors combined with lime zest, fresh parsley and citrus blossom. Texturally the wine is light-bodied and dry, with just enough acidity to add freshness, and a clean, lifted finish that offers a sense of grace and elegance. 45% Muscat, 35% Riesling, 20% Viognier.
