Not much info these days on the label about the grape varieties used, but it’s fruity, full flavored, an almost viscous body, and it’s orange in color. Not much skin astringency for an orange, but you know all they’ll talk about is the color. Good value though.
The vineyard website suggests a 44.5/25/14/9.5/7 blend of Grenache Blanc, Pinot Gris, Grenache Gris, Orange Muscat and Chenin Blanc, with aromas of stone fruit and citrus with flavors of peach, apricot and citrus peel. Fair enough

Cute Le Cigare label, but with a orange ray from the UFO. Color is definitely amber/orange in the glass. Smells like a few Rhone whites I’ve tried. Candied citrus peels and ripe gooseberries. Nice flavors. Crispness. Apples. Like a Newton Pippin. Not spectacular nor worth the $16 I paid. Jus kinda like a deeper Rosé. Dry. That’s nice.

Love Bonny Doon but a little disappointed with this white blend. Prominent apricot and peach with subtle citrus. I know, I expected more sweetness because of the color. I’m glad that wasn’t there but felt this was lacking something.
