A sure crowd-pleaser, our 2022 Viognier is the perfect summer wine. A light to medium-bodied dry white wine with pale straw yellow colour and fresh aromatics of white flowers and stone fruit. Honeysuckle, white peach and granny smith apple lead the way on the nose. The typical soft and a little oily texture of the Viognier is balanced by a mouth-watering acidity that brings to life a palate of orange rind, apricot, Asian pear and fresh minerality typical of our Viognier. A long and lovely finish encourages the next sip. This is a bright, refreshing, wine with a good weight on the palate and a fresh, elegant mouthfeel. Ready to drink now, or should be enjoyed before 2026 in order to retain its fruit-forward characteristics. This is a wine that can be enjoyed on its own, but will also pair well with the right foods, such as a thai stir-fry, seared scallops, or risotto primavera.

This wine was fermented cool in stainless steel; also aged in stainless. It is a luscious wine, beginning with exotic aromas of tropical fruits mingled with apricot. Layers of flavour include guava and stone fruits lifted by fresh acidity.

    Clean and fruity, nicely wound up. Tight acids, totally correct fruit in the varietal spectrum. Very good length. Very solid substance, well made wine. Tasted blind at the NWACs 2023. 92 points — John Szabo, MS, WineAlign
