White

The 2022 Viognier is biodynamically farmed and fermented in concrete and stainless steel, then aged for 18 months in predominantly neutral oak, with a small portion of new French oak. Picked on the earlier side, it avoids excess weight, showing honeysuckle, yellow peach, Niagara grape with a light touch of acacia honey. The texture is floral and expansive at the front of the palate, then tightens into a more pointed finish. It captures a Santa Barbara interpretation of Viognier that favours lift and restraint over viscosity or overt ripeness.
