Description:
The beguiling grape Viognier is known for its aromatic bouquet featuring gardenias and honeysuckle. Our Bonterra Viognier highlights exotic fresh peach and apricot fruit flavors supported by just a hint of oak from barrel fermentation in French oak and lees stirring for 6 months. The resulting wine focuses on pure, ripe fruit flavors that are coerced through the organic grape-growing process. A sophisticated, delicious treasure.

Varietal Definition
Viognier:
The most acclaimed white wine grape from France's Rhône Valley, Viognier is a highly aromatic varietal, with a flavor profile that could include peach, apricot, nectarine, lichee, musk and flower blossom. The heady perfume of this varietal is one of its trademarks, although its flavors are sometimes problematic in matching with food. However, it does well with lobster, crab and moderately flavored fish. Use it as an apéritif as an alternative to Chardonnay. The "Rhône Rangers" in California have done an excellent job promoting this varietal.
