This organic blend has 13.5% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L4314 on the back label.

TASTING NOTE: The ethos at Avondale is \"terra est vita\" (soil is life), which is embodied in this certified organic and biodynamic blend of Chenin Blanc with Roussanne, Viognier, Semillon and Muscat de Frontignan. Fresh and floral on the nose, it offers crisp apple and juicy lemon fruit. Exceptional value. (VINTAGES panel, June 2015) |
