WINE DESCRIPTION

DeLille Cellars Chaleur Blanc is a premium white wine produced by DeLille Cellars, a renowned winery in Washington State. This wine is made from a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon grapes sourced from some of the best vineyards in the Columbia Valley appellation. The vineyards are known for their unique terroir, which includes a mix of sandy loam and gravelly soils that impart distinct flavors and aromas to the grapes. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing of the grapes, followed by fermentation in French oak barrels, which adds complexity and richness to the wine. The resulting wine is a beautifully balanced and elegant white wine with notes of citrus, tropical fruit, and a hint of vanilla. It is a perfect wine to pair with seafood, poultry, or creamy pasta dishes.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This DeLille Cellars Chaleur Blanc is a beautiful wine that showcases a vivid and vibrant nose of ripe yellow apple, honeydew melon, and white peach, along with subtle nuances of jasmine, honeysuckle, and a hint of lemon zest. On the palate, the wine is round and juicy, with a velvety texture and flavors of yellow apple, white peach, and melon, complemented by a lively acidity and a touch of minerality.The finish is long and elegant, with a persistent flavor of ripe fruit and a pleasant note of citrus zest. A delightful and well-crafted white wine.
