Winemaker’s Notes: Our new vintage of Viognier exudes extravagantly fragrant aromas of honeysuckle, jasmine, beeswax, peach, papaya and creamy vanilla, with a hint of aniseed. Plump and full-bodied in the mouth, with luscious peach, papaya and anise spice flavors, this opulent white wine is beautifully balanced by crisp acidity and culminates in a refreshing, mineral-toned finish.
