Paul Jaboulet Aine 2019 Viognier VDF

The expertise that Paul Jaboulet Aine has in working Viognier in Condrieu helps to produce this wonderful easy drinking Viognier.

The wine comes from a very strict selection of grapes from a zone including the first Alpine and Cevenol elevations, but also near the Mediterranean Coast. Hence the fact that it is labelled as “Vin de France”. These grapes are from terroirs with soils rich in limestone and light in clay. The wine is matured on its lees in stainless steel vats for a few months, to retain both the complexity and the fruitiness of the grapes.

This bright, floral, refreshing white won First Prize in the 2019 Japanese Oyster Wine Contest, as the best wine to pair with oysters! A Steal!!
