winemaker's notes:
Viognier is a tricky grape to grow. Its natural low acidity requires it to be picked
at just the right moment. With this blend
Cline chose grapes from vineyards that
offered flavors indicative of the appellations from which they came. Solano
County was chosen for its grapes are blessed with ample sun and provided
maximum flavors. Cline's Mendocino vineyards, basked in warm days and cold
nights contributed to the full-body weight of this wine and their Carneros
vineyard was chosen because of its longer cool growing season.
Cline Viognier shows big peach and apricot flavors mixed with citrus and floral
notes. The wine is a powerhouse of flavor and is full-bodied so it will make and
excellent match with flavorful foods like Mediterranean stew and spicy
Mexican dishes.
