2021 Tarpon Cellars "Cambaro" White, Clarksburg, California, USA

This is an incredibly fun take on an easy drinking Spanish white wine. The Muscat Canelli provides intense aromatics, with Meyer lemon, honeysuckle, and geranium on nose. Peppermint and lime zest linger on an entry that brings to mind sipping sprite on the beach. Grated lemon and salinity complement a body that expands horizontally and includes fennel, citrus blossom, and Bermuda grass. Finish of grapefruit zest and stone.
