New Release - 2004 Catie's Corner Viognier

Viognier

This Rhône varietal exhibits a deep yellow hue, saturated with apricots, white and yellow peaches, lychee, jasmine, and honeysuckle on both the nose and on the palate. This fruit-forward wine, with its beautiful round body and sensual aroma, should be enjoyed when young. Bright acid balances the “off-dry” style of the wine and makes it perfect to be enjoyed with spicy Asian food or to be sipped chilled on a hot summer day.
$22 /bottle

WINE: The Appellation Experience
Thursday, July13 | 10:30 am - 2 pm

Hoot Owl Creek, Healdsburg

This unique event gives you a rare opportunity to get out in the vineyard with Sonoma County’s top winemakers and grape growers for an afternoon. Taste firsthand with the pros what effect climate has on wine, and why a cool-climate Chardonnay or Syrah is distinctively different from the same grape in a warmer area. You’ll use what you’ve learned in an informal blind tasting, followed up by comparing wines straight from the barrel. This is one wine experience you don’t want to miss!
