2024 Peay Vineyards Estate Viognier, West Sonoma Coast
High-toned floral aromas of honeysuckle and white flowers with hints of kaffir lime and lemongrass. The mouthfeel is not fat and ponderous but fresh and vibrant. Flavors of slate, lemon, and oyster shell combine with sour peach and salt on the palate.
Peay Viognier does not resemble typical French or American Viognier in style. This is due to our very cold growing conditions and Vanessa’s desire to capture our site’s unadorned, singular expression of Viognier in the bottle. She ages in 100% neutral barrels to promote elegance and to reveal the nervy, high acid, mineral character of our Viognier; the result is the opposite profile of a typical Viognier.
The 2024 Viognier is true to form delivering high-toned floral aromas of honeysuckle and white flowers with hints of kaffir lime and lemongrass. The mouthfeel is not fat and ponderous but fresh and vibrant. Flavors of slate, lemon, and oyster shell combine with sour peach and salt on the palate. Peay Viognier has found an enthusiastic audience and is selling out quickly so please grab your bottles soon to enjoy
this throughout the summer and the rest of the year.
