I’ve had the pleasure of meeting Julia Zuccardi earlier this year while debuting her line of [+] wines. One wine we did not have the opportunity to explore at that time was her Viognier.  Typically grown in the Rhone River region of France, Viognier now has a presence in Australia, United States, Canada, Chile and Argentina.

This wine has fruity aromoas of grapefruit and pear. Dry, with mineral flavors on the mouth with a crisp and well balanced finish. White wine drinkers will enjoy the refreshing departure from heavy oaked chardonnays. When my guests ask for something ‘white’ I reach for this wine from my cellar.

Purchased in my local wine shop for $7.50
