The wine has a wonderful apricot and citrus blossom aroma. The flavors are fresh pear and mineral. The wine finishes with a rich, slightly oily texture of fruit syrup. Enjoy this wine with a shellfish in a rich cream sauce or with a grilled meaty fish, like ahi, accompanied with a fresh fruit salsa composed of mangoes, tangerine, and cilantro. Winemaking Notes: This is the seventh vintage from the Noble Vineyard located in the Knights Valley appellation of Sonoma County. This is where Gregory Graham Viognier got its start, and now continues with another stylish Viognier similar to the previous vintages that continue to receive favorable reviews from both The Wine Spectator and Connoisseur's Guide to California Wine. The grapes from this vineyard have their own unique aroma and flavor characteristics that are Condrieu in character.
