Viognier 2015
The Story:
Beginning with our first vintage release of Viognier in 2008 (Buckin’ Horse White) and in consecutive releases, outstanding awards and accolades have been received. Flat Creek has helped introduce Texas wine consumers to the beauty of a well-crafted Viognier. This release of 2015 Texas Viognier will be as pleasant and popular as earlier releases!
The Tasting Notes:
Our 2015 Viognier is comprised of 60% barrel fermented fruit in neutral oak barrels. This technique helps the wine to develop a broad creamy mouthfeel. Floral and lemon notes are persistent throughout the palate.
