More about this wine from Hawke's Bay, New Zealand
Daniel Brennan, the founder of Decibel Wines, is an American making incredible juice in New Zealand. We fell for his take on Sauv Blanc, and then he sealed the relationship with his rosé. And now this Viognier from Hawke’s Bay, which lies on the east coast of the North Island of New Zealand and consistently enjoys more sunlight hours and dry weather than the whole of New Zealand. The fruit was cropped specifically to make a 100% varietal Viognier with only one bunch per shoot, giving great fruit intensity to each bottle.

The nose is all about bright floral aromas, and orange blossoms dominate the first whiff. Hints of cinnamon toast, brioche, and lemon meringue pie develop on the nose as the wine opens up with some air. The front palate is fresh with a soft, supple attack on the cheeks and a racing, spicy mid-palate melting into a chalky, tangy finish screaming for bold food pairings.
How to drink it

Pro Tip:

Your BFF gave you a book to read about three months ago and you simply haven't gotten around to it. Then one night the power goes out and you use a flashlight to dive into chapter 1.
