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.

Very typical floral and peach aromas are enlivened by a touch of green ivy, sassafras and vanilla on the nose. Bright and juicy with real prominent acidy on the palate supporting the lime, guava and tangerine shaded fruit. Easy mouthfeel lacks the viscosity of many Viogniers. Finishes with more of the lime and tangerine pith fruit that is juicy clean and fresh. A very fruit forward yet fun and delicious Viognier 89pts

Very fruity with flavors of melon and marzipan on the nose. The wine has really lively acidity which makes it very drinkable, and gives it a cool crisp minerality.Very very fruity and emollient. Finishes on gooseberry and green melon. Really a surprising amount of acidity for a viognier. Impressive.
