Event Details

Please join us for a tasting of the finest Viogniers of the world here at Rappahannock Cellars. A "production" tasting is one in which your own wines are put up against benchmark wines for the purpose refining your house style. This year I have selected four foreign wines that I will pit against my 2007 and 2008 Rappahannock Cellars Viognier. These are no ordinary wines, these Viogniers come from the most highly regarded producers in the world. Here's the lineup:

1. Château Grillet 2006
France / Côtes du Rhône / Appellation Château-Grillet Contrôlée
2. Andre Perret Condrieu Coteau du Chery 2007
France / Côtes du Rhône / Appellation Condrieu Contrôlée / Chery
3. E. Guigal Condrieu La Doriane 2007
France / Côtes du Rhône / Appellation Condrieu Contrôlée
4. Yalumba Viognier Eden Valley 2008
Australia / Eden Valley
5. Rappahannock Cellars Viognier 2007
Virginia
6. Rappahannock Cellars Viognier 2008
Virginia

This will be a blind tasting with the producers revealed after the wines are tasted.  Two ounce (59 mL) pours per wine.  Water and crackers served.
