Viognier 2020
We partially barrel ferment this estate wine which allows for a heavier body making this a white wine even red wine drinkers can enjoy. A swirl and a sniff of this wine will immediately make you think Juicy Fruit gum. On the nose a remarkable fragrance of honeysuckle and cantaloupe. On the palate you are rewarded with flavors of juicy apricot and an amazing big mouthfeel with a long finish revealing layers of complexity and spice notes.
