Straw green color. Aromas and flavors of duncan hines vanilla cream cheese frosting, ripe honey dew melon, junmai sake, and baby powder with a supple, crisp, bone-dry medium body and a swift finish revealing notes of vanilla cream, melon, and lychee. Fruity and floral, this would make for an interesting grilled salmon pairing.

While white varieties such as Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling are very important throughout wine regions in the US, there are numerous others planted in various zones. In California, Italian varieties such as Pinot Grigio and Arneis can be found, while producers in Santa Barbara and Paso Robles work with white Rhone varieties such as Marsanne and Viognier.

New York State works with hybrid grapes, both French and American. Among these are Cayuga, Seyval Blanc and Vignoles. This last grape is also grown in various Midwest states such as Missouri, Indiana and Illinois.
