| Community Tasting Notes (average 86 pts. and median of 86 pts. in 2 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by isaacjamesbaker on 3/25/2012 & rated 88 points: Sonoma Wine Tasting & San Francisco - March 2012; 3/22/2012-3/27/2012: This viognier is a tropical explosion of aromas: honeysuckle, pear and pineapple. The palate is much different, quite linear in its approach, with a strong clover honey flavor, along with a distinct note of grass. It's thick, with honey and wax on the finish. The alcohol might bother some, but I enjoyed the density of this viognier. (2381 views) |

This is nonsense.USAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Sonoma CountyMendocino CountyRussian River Valley Russian River Valley Winegrowers Association | Wikipedia |
