Viognier is a terrific white variety. It is a difficult grape to grow thought, which is why it nearly became extinct in its native Condrieu (Northern Rhône, France).
In 1965, the grape was almost extinct, and a source reported only eight acres in Northern Rhône producing just 1,900 litres of wine at that time. The popularity and price of the wine have risen since.
It produces wines with more luscious texture, especially with a little bottle age, but is also fresh, fruity and zesty when young. This wine is completely un-oaked and was bottled as soon as possible after vintage to capture its youthful fruits and delicate aromatics.
