This Viognier was amazing having laid down for the past few years in my wine rack. Color was a gorgeous light, yellow-gold. It was a bit buttery and drank smoothly. No bubbly or fizz quality like some VA Viogniers I’ve procured. Well done 868 Estates! Having consumed during COVID-19, look forward to when I may visit this winery’s vineyard and restaurant again.

I dont usually like oaked chardonnays - this is blended oaked and steel fermented. Pretty good for something that isnt to my usual taste
