Phantom Creek Estates Viognier 2017

Osoyoos, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe 2017 vintage got off to a cool, wet start and yields were reduced. Summer was warm but never hot, helping the grape to retain perfect acidity. Post natural ferment, ageing takes place for ten months in stainless steel and oak casks. The fruit comes off cooler morning sun, east-facing benches in Osoyoos, giving this viognier a vibrancy and freshness rather than a heavy perfumed tone. Rather delicious with juicy apricot dusted with a light coating of honey. Perfect for lightly-spiced sushi rolls or Thai dishes in coconut milk.Tasted: 05 September 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
