Despite California's romance with the Chardonnay grape, some ripe and juicy Viogniers are now available. Fetzer's is a wine of extraordinary intensity from the North Coast Vineyards. Lush and almost liqueur-like with an engaging apricot-honeysuckle bouquet.

Grape varieties: Viognier

The first unanimous hit of the tasting ... very aromatic nose and hints of smoke ... well-balanced intense fruit and aromatic hints of melon and stone fruit. Star of the flight. IMBIBE MAGAZINE May2007.
