A beautiful illustration of our Napa Valley Viognier, the 2023 vintage is expressive and aromatic, with notes of mandarin, orange blossom, and floral white jasmine on the bouquet. The palate is vibrant and bright with fresh green apple, citron lemon, peach, and nectarine. Zippy acidity offers a lively core with a subtle mouthwatering and inviting tang. Depth in flavor provides secondary notes of vanilla bean, undercurrents of honey, and delicate elderflower, which lead to a long, viscous, dry finish of white pepper spice and a wisp of Turkish delight. This Viognier has a mouth-coating medium body that provides sophistication, intrigue, and allure. It is enjoyable alone or paired with spicier foods, exotic dishes, or lighter fare.

Aromas of apricots, white rose petals, canned peaches and chalk. The palate is medium-bodied with a creamy texture and balanced acidity, giving flavors of orange blossoms, preserved lemons and cantaloupe.

From a company-owned vineyard in Oak Knoll, the 2023 Viognier was entirely barrel fermented in used oak, then spent a relatively short four months in wood before blending and bottling. It's nicely floral and apricot-scented, offering classic varietal notes on the nose; the palate is medium to full-bodied, plump, silky and generous, without any hints of bitterness. Nicely done.
