Color, Nose & Palate
- Arra Blanc de Noir is a beautiful playfully pink! It has a delicious bouquet and over delivers on quality. Light bodied and bursting with aromas of fresh strawberries, Melon and Turkish delight. The refreshing acidity perfectly balances out the fruit flavor, which adds a welcoming twist to the mouthfeel and ends of with a lingering dry finish.
