Tasting Note

The 2019 Vénus blend opens with a reductive, slightly smoky nose featuring burnt-match and pie‑crust aromas layered with flinty minerality. On the palate, you’ll find bright lemon rind and a lanolin-like texture reminiscent of classic Chenin styles, providing a gently austere but beautifully focused experience. Though reserved now, it rewards time and decanting—showing elegance, structure, and a long aging arc that unfolds through the early 2030's.

Product Notes

Donelan Venus White Blend is a luxurious and elegant wine that showcases the best of the Sonoma County wine region in California. This blend of Marsanne, Roussanne, Viognier, and Grenache Blanc grapes creates a harmonious and balanced flavor profile. The wine is pale straw in color with aromas of tropical fruits, honeysuckle, and citrus. On the palate, it offers notes of ripe peaches, apricots, and a hint of vanilla, with a crisp acidity and a creamy mouthfeel. This wine is perfect for special occasions or enjoying a relaxing evening at home. Donelan Venus White Blend is a true expression of craftsmanship and sophistication in every sip.
