Name Origin: - A voyager is someone who goes on a long trip.  Historically, voyagers have often been explorers to faraway lands, and some of our best friends – Randy & Joe – are true Voyagers (we shared that week in Bordeaux France with them in the spring of 2023).  We named this new wine after them (not only because they begged for two years that we produce a Viognier)…but because they have loved us so well and helped us so much with our little winery – that we wanted to publicly commemorate our thanks and love for them – two world explorers who enjoy lengthy travel, fine food, fine wine, and fine conversations with friends.  When you get older…there’s kinda nothing better than all that!  So let’s get dressed for a Voyage to a faraway land – Adrice Wines’ Voyagers Viognier!

 

Our 2023 Voyagers leads with its aromatics.  Deeply inhale through your nose over the glass and you’ll pick up sweet vanilla wafer, honeysuckle, and ripe white peach.  Viognier has the unique ability to smell like it should be sweet – but it’s a completely dry, lower acid, and fuller-bodied wine.  On your palate, Voyagers delights with ripe pear and white peach as honeyed or Crème Brûlée characteristics glide across your tongue leaving you with a fulfilling long, dry finish.

Serving temperature is key when it comes to Viognier. Cooler bottles will be more lively and brightly fruity in character, whereas less-chilled ones will allow the honeysuckle flowers and honey to shine more brightly. Pouring a well-chilled bottle of Viognier into a glass and sipping it every few minutes as the temperature rises will afford you the opportunity to see firsthand how dramatically serving temperature affects this particular grape.

Oh sheesh…we almost forgot food pairings!  Serve with Lobster in a Beurre blanc sauce, cheeses like Goat milk or Humboldt Fog, or after dinner with Crème Brûlée or Brie laden with local honey.

Who doesn’t want to look and feel great traveling around the world?  We encourage you to don your smartest Safari pants and mix and match blouse or sport shirt – load up a satchel with Voyagers Viognier – and head off to far-reaching destinations.  We know you’re going to look good no matter where you go – and you’ll “feel good” too with a healthy stash of Voyagers Viognier.  Thanks for the nudge Randy & Joe!
