Varietal White Blend
Winemaking Bianco represents Duchman's playful side, crafted as an approachable counterpart to their more serious single-varietal wines while maintaining the same commitment to quality and Texas terroir expression. The blend combines Vermentino, Roussanne, and Trebbiano harvested from select vineyards on the Texas High Plains, where the high elevation, sandy loam soils, and significant day-night temperature variations create ideal conditions for these Mediterranean varieties to develop full aromatic complexity while maintaining bright acidity. After careful harvesting, each variety is fermented separately in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve its unique aromatic profile and fruit purity. Fermentation is halted at precisely the right moment to retain a touch of natural sweetness that perfectly balances the wine's natural acidity. The final blend is thoughtfully composed to showcase the complementary nature of these three distinctive varieties—creating a refreshing, versatile wine designed for casual gatherings, al fresco dining, and pairing with a wide range of cuisines, particularly those with a touch of spice that harmonize beautifully with the wine's subtle sweetness.
