Late Harvest Tepusquet Vineyard

2008 Santa Maria Valley Viognier

The Cambria Late Harvest Tepusquet Vineyard Viognier from the celebrated 2008 vintage is a delightful expression of its Santa Maria Valley origin. This wine presents a luscious mouthfeel, boasting a medium to full body that is both rich and inviting. The acidity is bright and refreshing, perfectly balancing the vibrant fruit intensity that showcases flavors of ripe peach, apricot, and hints of honeyed citrus. Its sweetness is well-integrated, delivering a pleasingly off-dry experience that enhances its overall appeal. The wine's delicate profile is complemented by soft, subtle tannins, creating a smooth and harmonious finish that lingers beautifully. This Viognier is a wonderful choice for those seeking an elegant dessert wine that truly captures the essence of its terroir.

California's Central Coast might be a bit quieter than Napa or Sonoma to the north, but this lesser-known region produces many world-class wines. Enjoying incredible terroir along its vast 280-mile stretch—from San Francisco Bay to Santa Barbara—Central Coast wines are increasingly in demand. Its position between the Pacific Coast Ranges and the Southern Coast Ranges is key to its quality, with many cool-climate AVAs offering elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Merlot. In the hotter parts of the Central Coast, away from the coastal fogs and cold mountain slopes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre are exceptional.
