The 2020 Viognier "R" from Jeff Runquist Wines highlights the elegance and aromatic allure of this expressive varietal, grown in the distinctive River Junction AVA. Pale golden in color, it enchants with fragrant aromas of honeysuckle, peach, and apricot, complemented by delicate notes of orange blossom and a hint of vanilla.  On the palate, this Viognier is lush and creamy, offering a harmonious blend of ripe stone fruits, subtle citrus, and a touch of honeyed almond. Its vibrant acidity provides balance and freshness, while the silky texture leads to a smooth, lingering finish with whispers of tropical fruit and a kiss of floral sweetness.  This versatile white wine pairs beautifully with a range of dishes, from roasted chicken and creamy pastas to grilled seafood or mildly spiced Asian cuisine.
