Tasting - White Barrel Vidal Blanc

Name: Vidal Blanc
Variety: 50% Ugni Blanc and 50% Rayon d'Or
Region: Blue Ridge-Virginia
Country: USA
Year: 2016
Price: $22


Winery review:
This has floral bouquet and vanilla undertones and fresh greens and herbs. This wine has a delicate flavor profile with a clean finish.


My review:
This wine was part of the Meet Virginia Flight at White Barrel's restaurant in Blacksburg. At first I tasted floral tones but was overwhelmed by the aftertaste of an extreme earthy and moldy flavor which tasted slightly bitter. I was not a big fan.

I did not have this wine with any food.
