Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis small lot viognier comes from two long-time Osoyoos growers: Citrus Hill, and Star Vineyards. It was fermented and rested briefly in stainless, to preserve acidity. Lush blossoms, apricot, peach and lime, ride a slow, just-off-dry creamsicle palate, finishing with a dusting of gingersnap spice on the shorter finish. Impressively light at 11.5 degrees, chill this down and enjoy this summer.Tasted: 06 July 2019Tasted by: Prices:

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFrom two vineyards in Osoyoos, this was fermented and matured in stainless before being bottled in March 2019. A fresh, pure nose of orange blossom and apricot, with subtle lees character. The texture is broad and viscous, with balancing acidity and a clean finish. It is surprising to see this at only 11.5 percent, as you typically expect to see viognier at higher alcohol levels. That said, the wine doesn’t come across unripe. Varietally accurate, if not the most complex example.Tasted: 13 July 2019Tasted by: Prices:
