2016 Viognier
Other Notes
Comus Members: $42.50 Siren Members: $45.00
100% Viognier
Muddled Meyer lemon, dusty white peach, honeysuckle, and Pate Brisée introduce this aromatic white wine. The unctuous mid-palate is generously filled with flavors of orange marmalade and Persian lime, balanced by a precise and lively acidity that provides remarkable freshness. Vinous: 92
