2010 Blanc du Tusque

"Tusque" is an ancient word from a regional French dialect that translates "The Old Lands".  Our Tusque wines pay homage to the traditions of the French country life and its long history of understanding food and wine as inseparable.

Tasting Notes - The youthful nose possesses pronounced intensity with aromas of tart apples, spice, citrus, honey and white flowers. On the palate are flavors of grapefruit, sweet pineapple, pear, apple and a touch of fresh-cut grass. Expressive, juicy fruit is delivered with a soft, supple texture and a refreshing and balance finish.
