K Vintners 'Art Den Hoed Vineyard' Yakima Valley Viognier 2023
$24.00
25-year-old vines in a high-elevation vineyard; the two blocks on pure
limestone and broken basalt river rock are vinified together in concrete, then aged on the lees in barrels for four months without the malolactic fermentation taking place): Pale silver-yellow color. Sexy scents of peach, lime, mint and white flowers. Sweet fruit salad and candied pineapple flavors show excellent intensity and framing acidity. A fairly
large-scaled Viognier but also pure and crisp, finishing with positive phenolic grip, a suggestion of nutty oak and surprising dryness.
