Black Ankle Vineyards
Viognier
Pale yellow in the glass, this Maryland Viognier has a delightful nose of peaches and lemons. The palate shows a savory sense with both wonderful acidity and a full mouthfeel.

Jul 28th, 2017Second white from Black Ankle. Pale golden yellow, lighter than the Chardonnay. A little tight to start off, but definite tropical/citrus fruit influence, like lychee and grapefruits. Something a little sweet too, not exactly sure what but almost caramelized. Moderate plus acidity (7.5/10), tangy and light bodied. Palate was a little closed off with just wood chips and wet grass. Maybe with more time it will develop some more complex notes. Moderate finish and semi-dry. Drink till 2020.
