Doug MacKenzie has viognier for sale and the grapes are rapidly approaching their prime. The brix was 17-22 degrees as of July 27.
Made as a varietal or as a partner in a white Rhone blend, Viognier offers hints of ripe white peach and floral fragrance. Making syrah? Often, a small amount of viognier is co-fermented or blended into syrah to bring out the fruit and enhance the rose aroma. Viognier might be the magic that makes your syrah stand out.
