Winemaker Notes: The 2009 Duchman Family Winery Viognier is a highly aromatic, medium bodied, food friendly white wine that finishes clean. Notes of fresh, white stone fruit such as apricot and peach are found on the nose. The palate provides flavors of peach pit, honeysuckle with a slight creamy texture. These flavors continue to linger on the crisp finish.
