Hester Creek Terra Unica Viognier 2018

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:
