In establishing our own spin on a white blend, winemaker Jen Beloz and her team sought out interesting Rhône and aromatic varietals that would nicely [complement] a classic Chardonnay base. Aromatic and inviting, the wine opens up with subtle notes of mandarin and Meyer lemon zest....delightful flavors of Anjou pear, roasted marshmallow, spiced apple tart and a hint of minerality. The finish is rich and creamy with bright, balanced acidity. 35% Chardonnay 60% Rhone Whites (Viognier, Roussanne, Marsanne, Grenache Blanc) 5% Aromatics (Semillon and Riesling).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCRITICAL ACCLAIM\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e93 points Wine Advocate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA distinctive combination of 35% Chardonnay, 20% Roussanne, 20% Viognier and small quantities of Riesling, Semillon, Marsanne and Grenache Blanc, the 2012 Blindfold is a sleeper of the vintage. Reminiscent of the Sine Qua Non whites from further south, it bursts with honeyed, caramelized white fruits, rose petals and pineapple. Medium to full-bodied with good acidity, brilliant purity and a delineation that is uncommon for a wine with so much flavor... These offerings, which are the products of Quintessa’s Huneus family, are interesting wines, especially the proprietary blends. I hope consumers embrace these blends as they give winemakers lots of different options. Even more important, they are a lot of fun to taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e91 points James Suckling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA white with dried apple, mango and lemon curd character.
