Today’s Random Ridge 2012 Sonoma Valley Olas White Blend is a crisp, golden delight with perfect clarity. Aromas of lemon zest and sweet, fresh-cut hay greet the nose, along with toasty vanilla, green fig, pear, lime flower, river rock and Lemongrass.

The Lemongrass continues on the palate, joined by Meyer lemon, baked green apple, darkly toasted vanilla, green melon, white peach, pear, spice and sweetwood.

The finish has plenty of citrus and then ends slightly dry and zesty with spice, sweetwood and dark toasted vanilla.

Our good friend Bill Hawley seems to have found a way to bottle happiness. This wine will pair happily with all kinds of seafood, especially clams and oysters.
