WINEMAKER’S NOTE:
Fragrant, alluring, and exotic, Viognier is a rarity in Napa Valley. Darioush Signature Viognier expresses its inherently bright and vibrant character when grown from the cooler locales of Oak Knoll where dense early morning fog and late afternoon breezes allow this delicate variety to ripen slowly and completely. The hallmark of Signature Viognier is its effusive aromatics and core of juicy stone fruit.
TASTING NOTES:
The fruit for this wine comes from the Oak Knoll District. Precious scents of white flowers lead to an unctuous mouthfeel. A stream of honeysuckle, lychee, lemon blossom, and peach custard saturates the opulent palate before the long finish.
– Tasting Panel, 94 pts.
A fruity and laid-back viognier with notes of pears, white peaches and flowers. Medium body with a vivid character at the center and a flavorful, sweet almond-like finish.
