DeLille Columbia Valley Chaleur Estate Blanc 2020 750 ML

Offering hints of tropical fruit, peaches and lemon zest, the nose of the 2020 Chaleur Blanc is bright and intriguing, with earthy barrel notes of light vanilla and chocolate mint. On the palate, characteristic grapefruit and honeysuckle flavors are carried by vibrant acidity, with barrel aging contributing crème brulée and baking spices to the wine’s dry finish.n n Producer Informationn DeLille Cellars is a prestigious Washington State wine producer, founded in 1992.
