Tasting Notes

A co-fermented white blend with fresh white-flower aromatics plus lemon and dried apricot, backed by a subtle baked-bread nuance. Crisp and precise on the palate with white peach tones and a lingering, textured finish.

Food Paring

Pair with lean fish or shellfish to highlight the wine’s brightness and floral lift. It also works nicely with pork or vegetarian plates—and especially with cheese—thanks to the wine’s savory, textured edge.

Professional Reviews

90 Wine Advocate

"The new white 2020 Geisha Dragon del Desierto was produced with 70% Viognier, 20% Marsanne and 10% Pedro Ximenez from Los Chacayes that fermented together after a cold soak of two days with indigenous yeasts in 5,000-liter concrete eggs. Like the 50/50 blend of Roussanne and Marsanne, this also saw 10% of the volume matured in oak casks for eight months under a veil of flor yeasts, while the rest was kept in concrete. This is still young and fruit-driven with some spice and a restrained character, balanced and dry, not exotic or showy. It finishes dry."
