From Château Viranel, deep in the south of France, comes this oh so charming Viognier. Owners Nicolas and Arnaud Bergasse-Milhé hand harvest their Viognier grapes in the early morning hours in order to preserve its seductively aromatic bouquet. The wine is fermented at cool temperatures and remains on its lees for three months in order to develop just the requisite amount of additional richness and texture. The 2011 release displays a beautiful golden straw color with green highlights. A delicate bouquet of white flowers and citrus fruits are complemented by hints of sweet peach, honeysuckle and meyer lemon on the palate. The finish is fresh, bright and marked by a snappy acidity to things balance. Enjoy this refreshing white with crab salad, smoked salmon, trout or on its own on a warm summer day! 13% abv.
