Viognier, Santa Barbara County

Viognier, Santa Barbara County Wine Details
Price: $22.00 per bottle

Description: Viognier is quickly developing its own cult following among those who appreciate its clean, crisp, and sensual character. Aromatics of peach, grapefruit, melon, and maybe a little honeysuckle suggest something sweet, but the taste is dry and well balanced, making this is perfect partner for a warm summer afternoon. A bit of Roussanne adds depth to the wine, and a small percentage of Ashley's Vineyard chardonnay distinguishes the 2004 vintage from any other by adding a hint of minerality. Take this one to dinner- you're sure to get invited back.
