2018 Barrel Select Viognier
The nose of the 2018 Barrel Select Viognier is incredibly pleasant, with hints of fresh papaya, guava and honeysuckle. This exclusive Viognier features a lighter acidity and a creamy texture, with heavier tropical flavors of guava preserves and kiwi. Aged 100% in acacia wood barrels and stirred on lees for nine months, the palate features a hint of toasted bread, with a light body and a smooth finish. This wine was hand-crafted in a limited quantity exclusively for Bull Run wine club members.
