I know, you re supposed to love all your children equally. But it s an open secret to the people I work with that year in and year out, my favorite wine that we make is our Esprit de Tablas Blanc. That s not an indictment of any of our other wines. And it s not even that I open more bottles of Esprit Blanc than I do anything else (that honor goes this year to our Vermentino). But I feel like the Esprit Blanc is a wine that year after year we can stand up against the best examples of rich, textured whites made anywhere in the world, from any number of different grapes, and have it shine.
