Afraid of the Dark 2010
Afraid of the Dark is a blend of three Rhone varietals: Viognier (43%), Roussanne (42%,) and Marsanne (15%). Grown on our Class 1 home vineyard on Osoyoos East Bench, the wine is made from vines in their 7th leaf.
The wine is light to medium bodied, dry, with a floral nose of honeysuckle, grapefruit and peach and apricot, followed by hints of melon and ginger. On the palate the wine is crisp, with clean bright citrus, melon and honey characters. It has nice weight and mouthfeel contributed by the characteristic slight oiliness of the Viognier in the blend. The finish is crisp, with finesse and length.
