Intersection Reserve Barrel Fermented Viognier-Marsanne 2016
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis late picked southern Okanagan blend feels the sun-warmed richness of time, amplified by whole bunch pressing, and fermenting and aging in neutral French oak for six months with regular battonage. In 2016 the blend was 85/15 viognier/marsanne, the latter helping girdle the ever expansive viognier. White blossoms, pear, white peach, lychee, apricot fuzz and wood spicing flood a plump and juicy palate, finishing with big gingerale spicing. A bit disjointed, though registering at a welcome 13.5 degrees.Tasted: 17 August 2019Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $20.00 | 750ml | winery direct, private wine shops |
