“Our 2014 Viognier on the nose displays hints of tree ripened peach, pear and pineapple along with the fragrance of white flowers, licorice and Granny Smith apple. When tasting the wine one picks up again on the ripew stone fruits of peach, apricot and nectarine along with marked minerality and a beautiful testure followed by a crip finish.”
Graham Pierce, Winemaker
“The 2014 growing season started off with a warm early spring which showed steady growth in the vines. This, followed with minimum rain, allowed us to effectively control the vigor and crop load of the vines. Throughout mid-summer, desired temperatures and dry days extended right into the Fall and harvest period. This has been a fantastic year for weather and this reflects in the balanced ripeness and high quality tht was achieved.”
Steve Carberry, Winegrower
