Description
While some yahoo out in Niagara believes he can get $49 for his 2006 Viognier, let me tell you there’s a better option for much less money; the one drawback is its further away from Niagara – not such a drawback if you’re in the area or willing to make the drive. In Blenheim, 50km east of Leamington, lies Smith and Wilson, and they make the only Viognier in the Lake Erie North Shore area, from their own 4 year old vines. An aromatic white that has luscious apple and peach on the nose with flavours of white peaches, apples, pears and a whole lotta pineapple. This was their first go at making it and it truly is a wonderfully delicious wine made only in stainless steel to preserve that fruity-freshness.
