Maysara Autees Momtazi Vineyard Pinot Blanc 2022 (750ml) Commandaria

Maysara Autees Momtazi Vineyard Pinot Blanc 2022 (750ml) CommandariaAutees is the ancient Persian Goddess that protects all plants, animals and trees on Earth. She is the protector of life and all things that grow. A slightly richer style of the Pinot Blanc grape, tending towards ripe fruit notes of apricot and even lychee.
