Description:
This wine has a clean golden green hue that is full of exotic fruit components such as guava and cherimoya that intermingle with spices of coconut oil, basil-pineapple and hazelnut. Yellow-dried fruit nuances of apricot and papaya also emanate along with a slate and gravel profile. Texturally it has excellent acidity enveloping the palate balanced by a deft richness that is both complex and graceful.

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.
