Wine of the Week

Because it's routinely above 90 degrees, another white for you this week...


2007 Vinum Cellars Chenin Blanc-Viognier

I'll consider just about any bottle with "viognier" on the label. Vinum Cellars is based out of the Napa Valley and takes a hands on approach to wine making. The grapes are sourced from Clarksburg, an area known for warm days and cool nights. The process combines fermentation in stainless tanks and oak barrels, giving the wine a nice subtly that underlies the crisp fruit. Retails for $14 and sold exclusively at Whole Foods or through the winery.

Another one that I need to add to my list. Looks like I might have to run by Whole Foods on my way home from work one day next week.
