Musar Jeune White

Overview The vines used for this wine are from our organically certified vineyards and come from two
different terroirs: Chardonnay and Vermentino are grown on limestone soils, while the Viognier
comes from vineyards with silty soils. Both sites are at around 1000 metres above sea level.
Grape Varieties The 2019 vintage is a blend of Viognier (40%), Vermentino (30%) and Chardonnay (30%).
The Vermentino, native to Sardinia and Corsica and thus well suited to the Eastern Mediterranean
climate, adds citrus, mineral and even a marine character. It is moderate in alcohol and combines
well with the richer Chardonnay and fragrance of the aromatic Viognier.
