2000 Ripken Vineyard Late Harvest Viognier
The central valley has a history of making great dessert wines. As with many things in life, history is repeating itself. Viognier has found the perfect place to make a vendge tardine (late harvest). There is plenty of hang time, high sugars and just a subtle hint of botrytis resulting in this stunning wine. We used four different types of 100% new French oak with medium plus to high toast during the aging process.

| Comments: |
Golden yellow in color with an aroma of honeyed apricots and peaches lightly laced with cinnamon and vanilla. The truest expression of Viognier. Enjoy as an Aperitif or as a dessert on its own.
