Ripe yellow plum and apricot lead on a supple, rounded palate. Estate Viognier from vines bordering the famous Château-Grillet shows the variety's generous fruit character, lifted by bright citrus acidity that brings focus to the persistent finish.

Château-Grillet

Château-Grillet is one of France's smallest and most singular appellations: a single-estate AC in the northern Rhône producing exclusively white wine from Viognier, sourced from a steep granite amphitheatre above the river.
