Description:
This grape is quickly making its
mark in Virginia and giving
Chardonnay a run for its money!
The bouquet is floral and fruity.
Our micro climate highlights a
delicate orange blossom scent
that occasionally drifts into a
delicate wild rose. The color is
a sharp, clean and crisp clear
yellow mist. This wine is great
as a stand alone refreshment
but it really shines when it
accompanies classic seafood
delicacies. This wine is
destined to be a perennial
favorite.

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.
