About the series
Characteristics
About the variety
Viognier is an aromatic white grape from the Rhône Valley, famous for its expressive bouquet. Oak aging enhances rather than overshadows its intensity. Lees aging (“sur lie” method) adds extra texture, volume, and complexity while preserving Viognier’s natural softness.
