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.

Alcohol Percentage: 13.5 %

Smoky and oaky on the nose with a touch of roast meat, really wood driven aromatics and slow to reveal tones of dried tropical fruits, mango, papaya, very caramelly. Bitter wood notes in the mouth with a very nut oil core of fruit, a touch hot, finishes with a strong Linden flower note, which is the highpoint of the experience.

2004 Condrieu (aged two-thirds in stainless steel and one-third in barrel) reveals crisp, underlying acidity that provides uplift and drama to the exotic honeysuckle, litchi, peach, and apricot characteristics. This medium to full-bodied, floral, dramatic white should drink well for 3-4 years. -Wine Advocate
