2020 Croze Viognier

Grapes for our 2020 Viognier came from Block 7 vineyard in Clarksburg, California. This area lends itself well to Viognier with less of a diurnal temperature shift than Napa Valley. The hot days help drive the ripeness that brings out the true varietal flavors that make viognier such a special wine. With only two tons per acre, this old

vine viognier block creates intense character and depth.

The grapes were harvested September 6, 2020 and after pressing, went directly to a climate controlled tank for fermentation. After fermentation, the wine was racked to neutral French Oak barrels where it aged gracefully for 5 months. The resulting wine has a defined depth of flavor of liquid gold
