Upper Bench Viognier 2019

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaUpper Bench made its first ever viognier in 2019, and it's built around acidity and crispness, clearly forsaking the flamboyant creamy, luxurious fruit style for a lighter summer sipper, as they refer to it. On the nose, honeysuckle and passionfruit along with some primary fermentation notes of banana. On the palate, an ever so slight touch of citrus oil with a creamy, mineral finish. The suggested matches are Double Cream Brie and Grey Baby.Tasted: 19 July 2020Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
