Viognier is a grape brought to fame by the tiny DOC of Condrieu in the hills of the Northern Rhone. This exotic and beguiling grape is difficult to track down  and good examples even more difficult to find.

This simply wonderful example created by the world renowned Gassac estate in the Languedoc  is a most incredibly focused and elegant  example of this difficult yet enchanting grape.

Notes of white peach , pear and orange blossom, are joined by  little notes of citrus peel. Wonderfully fruited yet remaining  all times elegant, this is truly a wine to savour.

Try with poached Salmon, roast chicken or as a perfect pairing to French onion soup!
