Wine Enthusiast, 90 Points
"From grapes grown in both the Dry Creek and Russian River valleys, this medium-bodied white opens in an effusive expanse of floral jasmine. Citrus, stone fruit and lemon peel follow along a sleek, high-toned palate that shows refinement and length."
Winemaker Notes:
"On the nose: tangerine, peach, apricot, honeydew melon, tropical notes, lychee. On the palate: pineapple, coconut, papaya, mango, soft and round vanilla notes. Long finish - more fruity than floral.
Our most popular Viognier! Our Sonoma County Viognier is sourced from two vineyards in Sonoma County. A portion of the blend comes from our Estate vineyard where we have been growing Viognier since 1983 (certified organic in 2006). We find that the warmer climate on the hillsides of Dry Creek Valley helps to develop tropical fruit and tangerine notes in these grapes. The other fruit source, the McKinney Vineyard, is located on Westside Road, just 10 miles south of us in the Russian River Valley. The slightly cooler temperatures bring out citrus and stone fruit flavors in the grapes."
