Cedarville Vineyard 2013 Estate Viognier (El Dorado)

Country: US / Estate
Variety: Viognier California
Winery: Cedarville Vineyard / El Dorado

Made in a deliciously oaky style, this smells like melted butter and toasted baguette, tastes like ripe pears drizzled with crème anglaise and feels almost sweet. The toasted oak component adds a touch of bitterness to balance the richness, and it all works beautifully for this approach.
