Château-Grillet Blanc Rhône 2014
From Château-Grillet in France’s northern Rhône Valley, the Blanc 2014 is a refined 100% Viognier from a 3.8-hectare monopole on steep, terraced granitic soils. Fermented in enameled vats and aged two years in oak barrels, it offers a golden hue with vibrant complexity.

The nose reveals peach, pear, and honeysuckle, with hints of green herbs and apricot. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and creamy, with balanced acidity, a velvety texture, and flavors of almond, honey, and a long, mineral-driven finish.
