Wine Details
Price:
$30.00 per bottle
Description:
This Viognier is exotic, fully ripe and packed with an intense combination of flavors and aromas, yet it retains a crisp structure that allows it to be a wonderful food wine. Here is Viognier that explodes from the glass with aromas of honeysuckle, peach blossom and a set of sweet aromas we can only identify as Banana's Foster. The wine is downright rich with melon, baked apple, candied apricot and toasted marshmallow flavors. This is joyful wine that should be drunk now, in all its glory!

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.
