Obsession. 2002 Ironstone California Symphony.

The symphony grape is a cross between muscat of Alexandria and grenache gris. Don't think I'd seen this one before.

Floral, spicy aroma in this white wine. Some sweetness (I don't know - maybe 1 or 1.5% residual sugar) makes it easy to drink on a summer afternoon on the deck. No oak. Be good with spicy (Thai, Indian, cajun) foods. Pretty decent. Oh, only $7? In that case, pretty good.

$6.99, Richmond, World Market.
