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

Enticing aromas of peach, pear and citrus blossom introduce this fruit focused Viognier. Though barrel fermented, neutral cooperage was employed to avoid oak extract and preserve the forward fruity aromas and flavors. Ample natural acidity balances the mid palate weight and lengthens the finish resulting in a perfect complement for a variety of foods, including Thai and other Asian preparations.
