2018 Viognier

What do you get when you blend pristine fruit from two of the top Viognier producing vineyards in the state? Our 2017 Crawford Viognier! Hand harvested and whole cluster pressed fruit from our Estate Vineyard and the Crawford Vineyard of the Columbia Valley make up this delightful white wine.  The meticulous care in the vineyard shown by both growers speaks volumes in this wine which showcases a dazzling bouquet of fresh peach and stone-fruit backed by nuances of white grapefruit, Meyer lemon, and gardenias. Complementing the dynamic nose is a palate loaded with lovely layers of tangerine, orange zest, cantaloupe and papaya stealing the show. A lively backbone of acidity provides a refreshing experience that’s sure to leave you wanting more. This graceful and entertaining Rhone white can easily be enjoyed while sipping poolside or savor a glass with fresh seafood like fresh clams, scallops and prawns, black cod or lemon and macadamia nut-crusted halibut.  Also, get creative and pair with some things more on the wild side like almond chicken, blackened Mahi Mahi with rosemary and thyme polenta, or something fun like sweet and savory baked jerk chicken with orange and ginger glaze.
