From the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Light gold in color

Scents of Pear, peach & kiwi. Also a slightly sweet spice scent lurking

The wine has a 'stony' crisp character. Flavors of white & green fruits

Moderate, balanced acidity and alcohol. Young and simple - and good

Try it with cream sauce dishes, poultry or veggie soup

Adelsheim Vineyards of Oregon produces the typical wines - Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, etc., etc. However, they also produce some Special Releases. I've just sampled my first one: TF. It's made from the Northern Italian grape, Tocai Friulano, which is used primarily in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region. According to Adelsheim, TF is in the Sauvignon family, "its wines have more seductive fruit and less grassiness." Incidentally, this Tocai is not related to the Hungarian Tokaji or Alsatian Tokai.
