Cristom - Viognier 2023 (750ml) Valle de Guadalupe

Cristom - Viognier 2023 (750ml) Valle de GuadalupeThis Viognier offers aromas of white flowers, apricot, and honeysuckle. On the palate, it is rich and full bodied, with flavors of ripe peach, mango, and a hint of spice. Lush texture and vibrant acidity lead to a long, luxurious finish. Enjoy with creamy seafood dishes or spicy Asian cuisine.

The aromatics suggest cherry

I would prefer to drink it over the next year or two while the red-toned fruit remains vibrant
