Laughing Stock Vineyards Viognier +23/10 2019

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThough Laughing Stock hit it rich, so to speak, with new international Arterra ownership, the rich, luxurious, high rolling lifestyle wines have remained consistent. This is hedonistic, even by viognier's lush-life standards, with caramel apple, apricot curd, baked peach, vanilla coating a super ripe, 15% palate to a sweet, warming finish. Less discernible as viognier as a boozy, sweeter, custard drink. From Southern Okanagan fruit, this was whole cluster pressed and fermented in a mix of stainless and concrete eggs, and remained on lees for 6 months.Tasted: 23 July 2020Tasted by: Prices:
