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

Notes on the Iron Horse Cuvee R Viognier Blend Wine Alexander Valley 2006 : WINEMAKER NOTES: The wine smells exactly like the vineyard in spring when the Buckeye and Manzanitas are in bloom, which imnpart a white blossom - honeyed aroma, with fresh baby grass and wild iris underfoot. Raw zucchini salad with rice wine vinaigrette, eggplant crostini, anything to do with tomatoes and basil, bay scallop ceviche in butter lettuce cups, crab tacos, Florida Stone Crabs, grilled chicken Pad Thai, grilled plums with shiso. The New York Times named this the number one white wine for Thanksgiving. IRON read more...
