2023 Yavapai College Vineyard Viognier

Occasionally, in the middle of harvest, we’ll get a message from Michael Pierce, Director of Viticulture & Enology at Yavapai College, offering a small amount of fruit from the college’s vineyard. Always excited to work with new vineyards and to showcase our hometown of Clarkdale, we try to jump on his offers whenever possible. Although this was a small batch, we thought it unique and worthy enough to warrant its own bottling. This wine has the classic character of quince, pear and white blossom we so commonly see in AZ Viognier, but has such a delicate, subtle and elegant texture that we just couldn’t blend it away! Only 55 cases produced.
