Description:
Our Viognier is a dry, crisp, medium bodied white wine with tropical aromas and flavors of mangos, papayas and plantains. This wine will graciously complement a large variety of meals such as pastas, poultry and seafood. Aged for 8 months in light French oak barrels has given this wine a soft and creamy pallet while retaining its lenghty acidity.

Varietal Definition
Viognier:
The most acclaimed white wine grape from France's Rhône Valley, Viognier is a highly aromatic varietal, with a flavor profile that could include peach, apricot, nectarine, lichee, musk and flower blossom. The heady perfume of this varietal is one of its trademarks, although its flavors are sometimes problematic in matching with food. However, it does well with lobster, crab and moderately flavored fish. Use it as an apéritif as an alternative to Chardonnay. The "Rhône Rangers" in California have done an excellent job promoting this varietal.
