Ixsir, Grande Reserve White, 2023 California while gentler than a Sauvignon

while gentler than a Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand

This would be wonderful with roast or barbecued lamb

to preserve its clean and natural character

This is full of character

This is an excellent Pinot Noir from vines grown on limestone-clay soil (= Kalkmergel)

Ixsir, Grande Reserve White, 2023 California while gentler than a SauvignonMade mainly from Viognier, grown in some of Lebanon's exceptionally high altitude vineyards, this fabulous wine has the refinement and class of a top Condrieu. It has enticing aromas of honeysuckle, jasmine, white peach and citron. The expressive character continues on the palate, as the wine walks the tightrope between lively vivacity on the one side and satisfying, rounded mellowness on the other. Bravo!
