Item 18. First Colony Viognier
Wine: First Colony Viognier
Winery: First Colony Winery, Charlottesville
Composition: 100 percent Viognier
Description: This well-balanced white has floral aromas that lead to a smooth taste with a hint of fruit. It was aged half in stainless steel and half in neutral oak to give a soft mouthfeel and finish. Viognier, fast becoming a highlight grape for Virginia, was the sixth most-grown grape in the state in 2008 (behind Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Vidal Blanc).
When to enjoy: Well-chilled, after a long day at the convention center. Put your feet up, sip slowly and enjoy!
Initial bid: $10.00
