Description:
Our love affair with the Viognier grape continues with our 2000 offering from gentleman farmer Richard Ripken's vineyards near the Mokelumne River. It is always a pleasure to walk with Rip through his carefully tended vineyards, comparing flavors and sugar levels. In 2000 the eastern end of the vineyard was riper and the fruit had the peach, apricot, and melon flavors we seek. This Viognier presents you with apricots, pears, honeydew melon, lichi nuts, lime, coconut, mango and anise. Wow! In the mouth, this full-bodied Viognier has a peachy, citrus flavor, with a crisp racy finish. This wine is best around cellar temperature.
