Wine Description

Located in the heart of Sta. Rita Hills off Highway 246 on a very gentle, even slope with northern exposure, this vineyard is capable of making extraordinary wine. “Vis-à-Vis” Viognier from Zotovich Vineyard is a graceful and refined wine, a true embodiment of elegance. The name, meaning “face-to-face” in French, reflects the rare and precious nature of this wine. On the nose, it presents delicate aromas of orange blossom, white peach, and honeysuckle. Light and refreshing on the palate, with bright flavors of lime zest and a silky textured finish.

Mary Rivera – January 1, 1970
Fruit and mineralic flavors blend in this solid Viognier with honeydew and peach notes. Its sharp mineral finish and low sweetness complemented well with spicy chicken. Nicely priced and good for Thai food pairing.
Rated 4 out of 5
Mandy Currin – January 1, 1970
New winemaker, lacks balance, too sweet, missing acidity and refreshing citrus pith.
Rated 4 out of 5
David Campbell – January 1, 1970
Greenish-yellow color. Aromas of baking bread with hints of nectarine. Creamy nectarine taste with long mineral finish.
Rated 4 out of 5
Christopher Gilmore – January 1, 1970
Clear pale straw with lilac, butterscotch, and straw aromas. Medium to high acidity, slightly sweet with a hint of lemon peel. Short acidic finish.

Veronica Lepore – January 1, 1970
Lively Viognier with delicate stone fruit and flower notes. Energetic mid-palate with occasional candy floss and melon elements. Best paired with crab.

Outstanding Viognier with expressive aromas of apricot, honeysuckle flowers, stone, and spice. Balanced medium acidity with full tropical and citrus notes. Rich mid-palate and a nice finish.

Bright yellow wine with a tart pear and apricot aroma. The palate is also tart with a medium finish and high acidity. Alcohol content is 14.1%.
