Our Izzo Viognier has intense aromas of lychee nut, tropical fruits (pineapple, papaya, guava), spicy white pepper, mandarin/citrus peel, and nutty almost hazelnut undertones. The wine is dense but not flabby with great weight on the palate that gives you a rich but not cloying wine. The acidity is firm and gives this wine its backbone. Try pairing this wine with a variety of grilled seafood dishes, chicken dishes with lively marinades, and of course anything with garlic. Because the prime appeal of Viognier is its fresh and heady aroma, it is a wine that should be consumed young to experience the intense aromatics. So we suggest you drink this wine now, slightly chilled, or cellar over the next 2-3 years. |
