Viognier

16497 visitors
Viognier was once a fairly common grape, though it is now a rare white grape grown almost exclusively in the northern Rhône regions of France. Around the 1960s, the grape was almost extinct when there were only eight acres in Northern Rhône. The popularity of the wine, as well as its price, has risen and thus the number of plantings have increased. Rhône now has over 740 acres planted.
More information on Viognier
Food Pairing: Pairs well with lobster and rich, buttery seafood. Viognier can handle a smoky flavor and works well with pungent salads, ambrosias and cheeses.

2004 Viognier
Santa Ynez Valley

Viognier is one of the three northern Rhone white varieties found in common usage, and probably, the most common and popular of the three. It has great flavors of peaches and apric ...moreots, with the peach definitely dominating in this wine. Because of the forty percent new oak barrels used for fermentation and aging, it has a wonderful richness, almost sweetness that compliments the peach flavor, although there is no significant residual sugar in the wine. Viognier, unfortunately, is a variety lacking in a lot of acid so that it is not a very long lived wine, but that does not mean that it can not be an excellent alternative to Chardonnay, just drink it young. As this is a big full flavored white wine you can be especially creative with your food pairings. Think about things that you serve with fruit sauces or accompaniments. Ham, turkey, fish, lamb and pork come to mind, but it can also be served almost anywhere you would serve Chardonnay.

2007 Viognier
Paso Robles

Our 2007 Viognier is blended with 25% Roussanne. Right out of the bottle, an aroma of white peaches, bright enough to make a Georgia farmer proud, fills the air. The roussanne adde ...mored in gives this wine a rich, mineral, well rounded mid-palate, with subtle notes of honeysuckle, and a finish so crisp and so bright, you could swear you were biting into a fresh yuzu. Chef Brandon recommends this with Eucalyptus grilled abalone with uni tamari emulsion.
