Had this for quite some time - aged nicely - once we let it open up, it was quite nice! Perfect for Christmas Eve dinner with herb roasted turkey & all our favorite side dishes. — 6 years ago
Gift from my sister-in-law.. Surprisingly good white, with a some spirit and fruit that doesn't crush the palette. Still, best with a fish that is topped with a mango salsa or other light cirtrus base. — 12 years ago

Matthiasson produces both a red and white Tendu. The 2015 white Tendu is Vermentino based with some French Colombard and a small percentage of a mix of Italian white varietals. The Vermentino is from weathered, pink gravelly alluvium in the Dunnigan Hills AVA. Fermented in neutral barrels, inoculated with yeast from Champagne, no ML, no batonnage and sterile filtered.
Pear, lemon, white flowers, and loaded with minerality and acid. With its low alcohol (11.7% abv), ultra-refreshing, super-crushable style, the 1 liter bottling is a good move. — 6 years ago
