Viña Robles, Viognier “Huerhuero Vineyards”, Paso Robles, California 2020
{sustainable} 100% Viognier
BLOSSOMY AROMAS, STONE FRUIT, GINGER, HONEY & SPICE
Viognier is native to the Rhone Valley but now almost as many acres of it are planted in California as in France. This New World offering is hand-picked at the highest point in the vineyards where it benefits from the Pacific breezes. The result is a crisp, floral, dry wine with medium body and acidity and the telltale aromas of honeysuckle, peach, flavors of orange zest and white pepper.
Serving Suggestion: Chicken bstilla (Moroccan savory phyllo dough pie w/ egg, almonds, onions, garlic, ras el hanout & chili flakes topped with cinnamon & sugar).
