Joseph Swan Vineyards 2009 Catie’s Corner Viognier (Russian River Valley)

Country: US / Catie’s Corner
Variety: Viognier California
Winery: Joseph Swan Vineyards / Russian River Valley

The trick with Vognier is to take its exotic fruit and contain it with acidity and dryness. Swan’s ’09 accomplishes that task. It’s big in tropical fruit and orange flavors, but crisp and minerally, and the finish turns dry and clean. A beautiful restaurant Viognier.
