Review:
"Scents of buddleia, gentian, thyme and lavender immediately hint at the site in which this grew, and there is corresponding inner-mouth perfume to delightfully complement luscious apple and white peach on the satiny, palpably extract-rich palate, as do also a glowing piquancy of pits and pips and Veltliner-like savor of blond tobacco. The buoyant and profoundly protracted finish here leaves behind a soothing and intriguing carpet of flavors while not forgetting its first duty to refresh. - David Schildknecht"

Product Description
Le Jade Viognier is a fresh and aromatic wine, offering exotic fruit notes with a hint of peach nectar. A perfect pairing with bold flavors and spicy cuisine.
"Far better is the 2012 Viognier (100% Viognier). It offers up notes of lychee nuts, peach marmalade and honeysuckle as well as a medium-bodied texture, an authentic Viognier flavor profile and a crisp finish. It, too, is best consumed over the next year.

Review:
"The estate’s top wine is the 2016 Lirac Secret de la Grange, a 90-10 blend of Grenache and Syrah that never sees oak. This full-bodied blend is fabulously concentrated and lush, with ripe fruit flavors of raspberries and stone fruits, an intriguing hint of almond paste and a rich, long finish tinged with licorice. It should drink well for up to a decade. - Joe Czerwinski"
