Wine Review: This florescent straw-colored Viognier had a wonderful fruity citrus bouquet of pineapples, peaches, pears, ripe guava and hints of apricots. On the palate, this wine was medium bodied, with bright acidity and a slightly dry overall feeling. It features pink grapefruit, lime and lemon flavors. I also detected honey notes in the background. The finish was crisp with a full palate feel. I would pair this Viognier with baked lemon Haddock. - Joe
Winemaker Notes: An entry level white wine. We chose the Viognier variety because it is aromatic and brings great minerality. This wine offers immediate pleasure and will be perfect with aperitifs to accompany your seafood amuse-bouche. Beautiful yellow dress with slightly golden highlights. The nose is rich, subtly mixing notes of white fruit, yellow fruit and citrus (pineapple, peach, pear and apricot). The palate is balanced between freshness and volume and offers a beautiful aromatic complexity. Its finish is long, with a hint of lemon zest.
