Featured Wine – May

Horton Viognier

2015, Orange County, Virginia

95% Viognier/5% Petit Manseng

Barrel Fermented, French Oak.

A complex wine, Viognier fills a unique niche in wine pairings as it distinctly stands apart from Chardonnay with a floral nose and lower acidity, yet its fruitiness doesn't overpower the palate in the tone of a sweet white wine.

Horton Vineyards 2015 Viognier has received positive reviews for its subtle hints of pineapple and pair, yet with a mild acidity, which makes for a complex and interesting wine. Well paired with a variety of foods, this wine also serves as a perfect summer sipper.

Recommended Pairing:

Enjoy this wine with light meats and seafood, such as our Flounder Piccata.
