VIOGNIER 19 RESERVE

To craft this delicious wine, we targeted old vine grapes from the warm area of Ripon, California, where microclimate conditions are exceptionally good to grow late-ripening varieties like the Viognier. Fermented and aged “sur lie” in new French oak, this wine has a nice balance between sweetness, alcohol, and acidity. We also added a touch of a crispier and refreshing Chardonnay from Columbia Valley to enhance the fruitiness of the final blend. Canned peaches, papayas, and creamy flavors abound in our unique Lynfred Viognier Reserve 2019.
