Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis sparkling viognier is a restrained and slimmed down interpretation of the variety, although the telltale viognier fragrance of citrus blossom and white peach is present, layered with a subtle hint of leesy notes from 12 months en tirage. The marked acidity, emphasized by the underripe nature of the fruit, makes it feel more linear and lighter. The inherent phenolic bitterness of the grape is quite subtle, adding a pleasant texture to the wine.Tasted: 05 November 2022Tasted by: Prices:
