The word Anima refers to the vital life force or soul. Our ethos "Terra Est Vita" (Soil is Life) is their acknowledgemnt that for us, soul animates everything on earth, from the minerals, through plants and animals to humans. The wine producer, who also owns a major health food company, named this wine Anima because the lively minerals of Avondale's soils give this wine its own delicious, spirited character and extraordinary finesse. Anima has a nose that develops intriguingly in the glass. Pineapple, lime and a hint of honey confirm the elegance and fullness of this softly wooded, supple Chenin Blanc. The palate is dense with fresh fruit flavors of gooseberry and quince, all harmonizing superbly with the soulful mineral that gives this wine its name.

Food Paring: Chicken, Seafood, Vegetable, Soft Cheese.
