Kourtney talks C-De-Me! Shortened for Citrus De Medici, and translates to Citrus of the Medici. The Medici family was a powerhouse family in Italy and they were known for their citrus trees. Citrus was a symbol of wealth, prosperity, and fertility. You would often see a citrus tree in the center of a garden or courtyard back during the renaissance time period. This being an old world style wine, it was fun to tie the name to a bit of history. When it came to blending we used a touch of Pinot Gris and Riesling to help round out the finish, giving it a more soft yet complex finish. This wine shows great balance of floral aromas and orange blossom that is followed with a honeysuckle, jasmine, and spearmint finish.
