Winemaker Nathan Carlson Notes
Traditionally Viognier shows floral characters, similar to Rieslings, and oily textures on the palate. The 2009 EOS Reserve Viognier shows the classic style with just a bit of oak allowing aromas of honey, white flowers, rose petals, pears, and nectarines to take center stage. The rich mouth-feel and refreshing acidity is balanced by a light white pepper spice finish.
