REVIEWS: Wine Server Diana's Favorite Pick:
"The Golden Jubilee is special because it is named after our winery's golden retrievers. Which is why it has the cutest label! This wine is a blend of Moscato and Chardonnay grapes. The blending of those two allows this wine to have some sweetness but with a dry finish. Which makes it, in my opinion, the perfect white wine. This wine is great on its own, but I would recommend you enjoy it outside on a nice warm day."
