Muscedere Vineyards Vidal Blanc 2009 Review
Winemaker’s Notes:
There are conflicting reports over the internet who invented the Vidal Blanc variety. Some say it was John Louis Vidal and others say it was one of the commercially-successful hybrid products of prolific French hybridizer Albert Seibel. What is certain is that it is a cross of viniferia Ugni Blanc (Trebbiano) and an early French American hybrid Rayon d’Or (Seibel 4986). This first ever Vidal Blanc from Muscedere Vineyards is a light, clean, crisp white wine. This wine ehibits hints of citrus fruit and passion fruit. Enjoy with a summer salad on the patio or on its own as a cocktail wine.

Rate and review Muscedere Vineyards Vidal Blanc 2009.


Wowza! this is one crisp, refreshing drink.
Packed with acidity and sweet grapefruit and pineapple notes this one delivers a lot of punch in every sip. For those serious wine drinkers, you may even note some mineral in there too.
This wine is what summer time is all about. This is a porch sipper, a backyard sipper, a sipper for any occasion on a hot summer day.
This one is worth buying a few of, just to have on hand for a summer treat.
Wasn’t one of my favourite wines from muscedere winery. Not much to taste.
