Granny Smith apple, Meyer peach, chalk and tangerine zest. Great acidity and minerality.

Clear straw gold in the glass. Big bosomy nose of tropical fruits and honeysuckle. Smooth, rich mouthfeel; palate of underripe pineapple and new banana. Alcohol in check. Acidity characteristically low (so don't hold). This is how new world Viognier should show. I may have found a rival to Fess Parker.
