Fragrant, alluring, and exotic, Viognier is a rarity in Napa Valley. Darioush Signature Viognier expresses its inherently bright and vibrant character when grown from the cooler locale of Oak Knoll where dense early morning fog and late afternoon breezes allow this delicate variety to ripen slowly and completely. The hallmark of Signature Viognier is its effusive aromatics and core of juicy stone fruit.
Longer hang times in the cooler climes of Oak Knoll resulted in a lively, elegant, and aromatically complex wine. Laden with wonderful varietal notes of stone fruits and tropical flora, the 2023 vintage exhibits abundant flavors of crisp nectarine, fresh peach, and guava nectar, with refreshing notes of tangy kumquat and tart lemon meringue elongating the exceptionally bright, refreshing finish.
