The White Knight Viognier

white knightThe sun is shining, the birds are chirping, a mild breeze if floating through the air…It’s that time of year again to think about what wine to drink out on the deck. And a white wine will fit the bill perfectly! Amy we suggest The White Knight Viognier?  Today’s featured wine is crisp, clean and refreshing, a perfect wine to pair with grilled fish.  Clarksburg is a lesser known wine region from Northern California, the perfect climate for grape growing and known for balanced and affordable wines. The White Knight Viognier has a small amount of French Colombard and Muscat added to provide balance. Its notes of green apple, peach and honeysuckle are very noticeable. It’s a medium bodied wine that is at its best served at about 50 degrees. Viognier is such a nice alternative grape, you can also match it with roasted chicken, shrimp or lighter cheeses. Cheers!
