The Basics of Viognier (vee-own-yay)

Aromatic & Full-Bodied White

Tasting & Pairing Viognier

Hailing from southern France, this aromatic and full-bodied white is known for its notes of apricot, honey, lime, mango, peach, pear, oak, and tobacco.

The key to pairing viognier is to select meats and dishes that complement Viognier’s bouquet without overwhelming it. Think turkey, oysters, ramen, and roasted vegetables.

What Makes It Uncommon?

Viognier is for the Chardonnay lover who is looking to dig a bit deeper in the world of bold whites - It’s still a more full-bodied white wine, but unlike Chardonnay, it’s softer on acidity and more perfumed.
