Description:
McCrea Cellars released Washington State’s first varietal Viognier from the 1997 vintage. We now introduce our first “sticky” wine made from this exotic white Rhône grape.
2002 was another very warm vintage in Washington State, much like ’98, ’00 and ‘01. In spite of a few strong heat spikes in June, grapes were harvested relatively late throughout the
season. Although sugar levels indicated ripeness, we waited for the fruit flavors to develop fully. As a result, many wines from this vintage will be lush and fruit-forward with slightly higher alcohols, balanced by greater fruit intensity, tannins and excellent acidity.
