Soft and rather neutral flavour. Fresh and delicious young but can develop beautifully with age. Crisp, bracing flavour of apples, lemons, and grapefruit. Soft, smooth flavour with some herbal spiciness. A good grape to blend with Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay.
Some grape varieties improve when blended.
Sample blends of wines that are lacking in opposite qualities are made up in small measured amounts and tasted before the bulk wines are blended. Do not bottle blended wines immediately. Store them in bulk for at least 30 days so they adjusted to each other. Sometimes blending will produce a haze that will need to be cleared. A good experiment in blending is to blend finished wines.
