Aurora Cellars’ Luminous

Bottoms Up

According to the winemaker notes on this semi-sweet white, “This wine is the ultimate oxymoron; It’s a planned improvisation. We always know what we want Luminous to be in terms of aromatic style and palate, but which of our vineyards the fruit comes from depends on how the vintage is developing.” Well, whatever they’re doing, they’re doing it perfectly! This wine is an ultimate summertime crowd-pleaser that will tempt dry and sweet drinkers alike. It’s refreshing, it’s smooth, and it pairs well with everything on the picnic table. Truthfully, the wine sounds like its name, with bright flavors and a bright finish. Pick up a bottle ($22) at Aurora Cellars in Lake Leelanau (7788 E Horn Road), or enjoy a glass on their quiet hilltop overlooking the rolling hills of the county. auroracellars.com
