2011 Parker Family Reserve White
Parker Family Reserve white wine incorporates all four whites planted on our home ranch Rodney’s Vineyard – Viognier, Marsanne, Riesling & Chardonnay – and was created to both showcase the quality of this unique site, and the family’s commitment to crafting great wine.
NEW VINTAGE RELEASE!
Fresh and aromatic with white flowers, peach, marzipan, Asian spice and honey suckle, this wine delivers rich and ripe flavors of peach, mango, apricot, papaya, orange zest and vanilla wrapped up in a silky texture while retaining good acidity, balance and elegance.

Enjoyed this very much. Received in my wine of the month box and opened it last evening when I served the first course of dinner, pasta, to my family.
