Barboursville Vineyards Reserve Viognier
Viognier
Vintage: | 2018 |
---|---|
Description: | Absence of oak aging, extended lees contact and stainless steel vinification concentrate the aromatics and luscious flavors: pear, passion fruit, and hints of citrus on a gently herbal frame. It matches well with spicy cuisines and is a perfect summery wine to enjoy on its own. Parker's Wine Advocate : 90 Points. Winemaker's Notes : Planted widely now in many regions of Virginia, Viognier evolves so vividly in our Piedmont terroir that we were the first to abandon oak and malolactic fermentation to reveal the complexity within its warm climate sultriness, and the vitality of middle palate sustaining its floral opulence. A wine of full body and adaptability with game as well as the traditional pairings of fish, shellfish, poultry and Asian cuisine. The estate winery and vineyards are located on 830 acres of beautiful rolling hills near the Blue Ridge Mountains. We presently have 90 acres of vineyards and continue to expand. Under the direction of Luca Paschina, General Manager and winemaker, Barboursville consistently produces quality wines that have won international recognition. The Zonin family of Italy, brought their strong commitment to produce quality wines to Virginia in 1976. They were the first in the state to plant and successfully establish the revered vitis vinifera vines. The four Zonin brothers, proprietors of the largest Italian privately held wine company, descend from a family that has for centuries been wed to viticulture. |
