”vineyards viognier is a tricky grape to grow in that it buds out early and is susceptible to frost. Also it’s thick skins require patience to get the full flavor potential of the grape. The vines basked in the sun during the day and were cooled at night which contributes to this viognier’s full-body weight and nice acidity. Fermentation & aging the grapes were handpicked and de-stemmed without being crushed then immediately pumped to our tank press where the juice was gently squeezed from the grapes. Juice was pumped to a stainless steel fermenting tank and the wine was chilled and settled overnight. The juice was then racked (decanted) off the grape solids and inoculated with a pure strain of wine yeast. Fermentation proceeded at a cool 50 degrees f to preserve the lovely fruit character and kept in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. Winemaker’s notes this varietal comes to us from the northern rho;ne valley in france. Presumed to have arrived from dalmatia and t
