“The domaine transplanted Viognier vines from Condrieu, in the Northern Rhône, to the heart of the Southern Rhône to create this uniquely sunny, perfumed expression of the grape. Matured six months in a combination of neutral vats and barrels (1/4 new wood), it offers plump tangerine and apricot flavors accented by a hint of burnt vanilla. It’s a lavish yet keenly balanced dry white at peak now through 2026.” Wine Enthusiast 90 Points
“The 2020 Principauté D’Orange Viognier offers a more reductive, crisp, focused style as well as textbook tangerine, apricot, and white flower notes. It will be even better with another 6-12 months of bottle age.” Jeb Dunnick 89 Points
“Friendly and open-knit, offering anise, apricot and peach notes, with a plump feel from start to finish. ” Wine Spectator 88 Points
