Viognier

Delicately pale in color, the scent of white flowers blends with aromas of white peach, apricot, and lemon meringue. As is typical of Veritas Viognier, the mouthfeel is luxuriously smooth yet bright, with perfectly balanced fruit flavors of peach, candied pear, and a hint of crystallized ginger. The 2025 vintage was hot and mostly dry, and this Viognier shows legendary aromas of peach and apricot, with a hint of fresh mango. On the palate, fresh apricots are clearly articulated with a fresh finish. Light, lively, and relatively soft on the palate, this wine pairs well with nutty flavors, from indulgent lobster to Dungeness crab. Or go to the other extreme and see how well it handles spicy Thai food. In its youth, the 2025 Viognier will be bright and fruit-forward. As the wine ages, it will slightly lose acidity and show greater richness and depth in the mouthfeel. The peak for this wine is within 5-7 years of the vintage.
