An unexpected joy that combines the richness of Viognier from Ballard Canyon with the citrus and minerality of Sta. Rita Hills Chardonnay. Apricot, honey, and toasted bread on the palate with solid acidity on the finish. Elevage in neutral oak for 10 months before bottling. 80% Viognier and 20% Chardonnay
Warm aromas of salted nectarine, apricot and Meyer lemon are quite inviting on the nose of this blend of 82% Viognier and 18% Chardonnay. The palate opens broadly with peach, baked apple and savory salt flavors, as warm oak spice provides richness and power.
