Domaine La Ligiere, Viognier "Méditéranée" [3L Bag-in-Box], Southern Rhone, France 2022 {biodynamic} 100% Viognier RICH APRICOT, WHITE PEACH & HONEYSUCKLE, TANGERINE DREAMS Aged in concrete vats to maintain the pure aromatic freshness of the Bernard family’s newest cuvée, Philippe is allowing viognier to take center stage for a solo act, as it does not often get the chance to do here in the Southern Rhone. This wine easily earns itself a standing ovation as a complex, full-bodied white with a bright, summery disposition. Fresh floral exuberance and citrus oil greeting the nose, juicy ripe stone fruit and pleasing acidity delight the palate and offer a vibrant expression of viognier in the Rhone. Serving Suggestion: Monkfish w/saffron cream sauce.Baked brie topped w/honey, basil, and peaches. Zucchini-lentil fritters w/lemony yogurt. Prosciutto wrapped cantaloupe w/ honey drizzle.
