Tasting Note
 
The 2020 Viognier is lively and vibrant, leaping from the glass with the variety’s classic stone fruit characters alongside a fragrant floral bouquet. Crisp and multi-layered with notes of orange blossom, nectarine, peach Tarte Tatin and Asian pear, alongside more delicate hints of toasted almond, allspice and honeysuckle. A lean core of fresh acidity is supported by a flinty minerality rounding out to a graceful finish that is mouthwatering, rich and luscious. Incredible depth and complexity, finishing soft and silky with a subtle spiced floral note. Perfect for warm weather enjoyment and pairing with lighter fare and exotic spiced dishes, an elevating accompaniment to any occasion.
