We went to Eden Winery a small winery east of Ft. Myers Florida to sample this wine. The Lake Emerald varietal came out of the University of Florida almost 60 years ago. From what I can gather its parentage is Pixiola and Golden Muscat . Amazingly it can handle those Florida temperatures, critters and blazing sun. I was shocked to find this white dry, clean and thoroughly refreshing. The winery says it is "Extremely dry, with an underbody of ripe fruit" and I think that sums it up neatly. I would forgive you for thinking that this one was a light sauvignon blanc. I bought a bottle to drink with some fresh seafood.
