Discover California's Hidden White Wine Gem
Luminous straw gold with glints of silver-green, this captivating Viognier delivers vibrant aromatics of sun-ripened white peach, honeysuckle, and jasmine with hints of Meyer lemon and crystallized ginger. The palate unfolds with generous waves of nectarine, tropical fruit, and subtle spice, all balanced by bright acidity and a silky, voluptuous texture. The finish remains persistent and harmonious with refreshing mineral clarity providing perfect counterpoint to the wine's natural opulence.
Cline Family Cellars, pioneering Rhône Rangers since 1982, meticulously sources this Viognier from cooler pockets throughout Sonoma and Mendocino counties. The ideal 2023 growing season featured revitalizing winter rainfall followed by a temperate summer without extreme heat—creating perfect conditions for developing profound flavor complexity.
Whether paired with seared scallops, fragrant Thai curry, or artisanal triple-cream cheeses, this versatile white delivers exceptional value for a premium expression of this sometimes overlooked variety.
