The idiom Viognier is a clear and complex example of an elegantly wooden Viognier. In light straw yellow, it exudes lush aromas of fragrant citrus flowers, fine almonds, Turkish honey and candied fruit. On the palate this wine is medium-bodied, elegant and creamy with lingering notes of lemon meringue and floral violet.

The juice of the Viognier grapes was fermented in a steel tank at a controlled 13-15°C on the first day. After the first day of fermentation, the juice was transferred to oak barrels where the fermentation was completed. The wine then matured for 12 months in first, second and third filled French barriques and was lightly filtered before bottling.
