What to Expect

Viognier is one of the great grapes of France's Rhone Valley. It is an extremely aromatic variety redolent of ripe peaches and wild flowers. It is frequently used to add aromatic complexity to blended wines but on its own, delivers a rich, soft wine with high alcohol and deep flavors of honey, peach, apricot and tangerine.

Winemakers Notes

Tasting Notes :A light, minerally, lemon and fruit nose, followed up by peach, apricot, orange peel and lemony citrus wrapped up in a mineral-laced finish. This wine is a bit hot (14% booze),delivered on pretty much all the Viognier requirements It has a nice crispness to its finish that makes it a very food-friendly wine.

A really lovely, fragrant, and balanced white that goes well with lighter dishes. A real bargain.

A delightfully crisp wine that is bursting with tropical fruits and spices. It's brilliant as an apéritif, but its freshness will also brighten up just about any meal you can think of.
