Inspired by the legendary white wines of the Southern Rhône, Caress is a California take on Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc—lush, complex, and beautifully structured, with the depth and longevity to evolve gracefully for years to come.
The Southern Rhône is renowned for producing some of the world's most compelling white wines, and Caress pays tribute to that tradition. Our California non-vintage expression of Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc combines opulent texture, haunting aromatics, and intricate layers of flavor into a wine of exceptional elegance and longevity.
Rich, aromatic, and textural, yet fresh and balanced—reminiscent of the great white wines of the Southern Rhône, with the depth and structure to age gracefully.
On the palate, it is rich and silky, showcasing flavors of stone fruit, citrus curd, and ripe orchard fruit framed by hints of almond, acacia honey, and delicate spice.
A vibrant thread of acidity balances the wine's lush texture, while mineral undertones add complexity and precision. The finish is long and elegant, lingering with floral notes, citrus zest, and a touch of creamy richness.
