Made in the Condrieu style, this wine is 100% Viognier and was aged for 8 months in 100% French oak barrels of varying ages. The result is a beautiful sphere of complex aromas and flavors: floral and mature exotic fruits on the nose and palate; a balance of ripe and dried apricots, notes of guava, lychee, and spicy flower perfumes blend with light smokiness, vanilla, and fresh tobacco from the French oak.

Albemarle Viognier pairs well with chèvre and other fresh cheeses, pasta dressed with oil or vegetable sauces, grilled vegetables, light salads, and even cold cuts. The wine shines equally well with delicate fish (such as sole, flounder and snapper) and shellfish - especially lobster, scallops, clams and oysters.
