Viognier 2010
The Viognier for this inaugural single varietal bottling was grown in our Class 1 home vineyard on Osoyoos East Bench. The wine underwent cold fermentation entirely in stainless steel in order to preserve the complexity and freshness of its fruit character. Whole bunch pressing, and slight extended skin contact on portions of the fruit contributed to the mouthfeel and flavor profile of the wine.
The nose and palate both display the delicate yet complex aromas and flavors of sweet white flowers, lemon, peach and other stone fruits, with hints of ginger in the background. The typical slight oiliness of Viognier is present, providing weight and pleasant mouthfeel. The finish is long, with the fruit sweetness balanced well by the crisp acidity.
