Lavender Blue...

2010 Paso Robles Viognier

Lavender Blue is a captivating white wine made from the Viognier varietal, hailing from the renowned Paso Robles region. This delightful 2010 vintage exhibits a full-bodied character with a refreshing acidity that enhances its complexity. The fruit intensity is prominent, showcasing luscious aromas and flavors of stone fruits, particularly peach and apricot, complemented by floral notes that evoke its namesake. With a dry profile, Lavender Blue offers a wonderfully smooth mouthfeel and a lingering finish that invites you back for another sip. This wine beautifully encapsulates the essence of Paso Robles, where warm days and cool nights foster the perfect conditions for growing this exquisite varietal. Enjoy it chilled on a sunny afternoon or pair it with light seafood dishes for a delightful experience.

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.
