Sweet Viognier

2007 Contra Costa County Viognier

The Fenestra Sweet Viognier from the 2007 vintage is a delightful expression of this varietal, hailing from the warm and sun-drenched Contra Costa County. This white wine showcases a beautiful golden hue that captures the essence of sunny days. On the nose, it presents an inviting bouquet of ripe peaches, fragrant honeysuckle, and a touch of apricot, highlighting its prominent fruit intensity. The wine boasts a luscious, full-bodied mouthfeel that makes it incredibly enjoyable, while its balanced acidity adds a refreshing brightness, making it an excellent companion for a variety of dishes. The sweetness is perfectly integrated, creating a harmonious profile that lingers elegantly on the palate without being overwhelming. Ideal for those who appreciate a fruit-forward, easygoing wine, this lovely Viognier is a true testament to the craft of winemaking in Contra Costa County.

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.
