The Rich & Textured White
Full-bodied, creamy, and gently oaked.
What it is
These are the broad, mouth-filling whites — barrel-fermented, often with a touch of lees character that lends a creamy, nutty depth. Acidity holds the weight in balance so it never turns flabby. They sit closer to a light red than to a lean white in weight and presence.
