“Our first release from CottonWood Creek Cellars is a 2009 White Table Wine made with organic grapes,” said Winemaker John Allbaugh, “It’s an approachable, light-colored wine with fruit aromas that mingle floral notes. It is an exceptionally food-friendly wine that shows rich, fresh fruit and ends with an elegant finish.”
