Winery's Notes
"The 2024 Viognier is a celebration of our two-decade history at Bien Nacido Vineyard and our 30 th Anniversary as a winery. The wine was mostly fermented and entirely aged in a concrete tank. This special and small production has notes of citrus zest, gingersnap and stone fruit that greet upon initial introduction. The palate brings persimmon, tropical pineapple and lychee fruit. The viognier has firm acid and a weighty finish. This viognier is drinkable now but can cellar up to 3 years."
