While Pride’s mountaintop estate is revered for their red wines, their sumptuous and elegant whites garner their fair share of praise from those in the know. A mere 150 cases of Viognier and 400 cases of Chardonnay make it into the trade each year. There is hardly enough wine to go around. Their exclusivity adds to their mystique. This is particularly true of Pride's estate Viognier.
WINEMAKER NOTES - "The 2024 Viognier captivates with its intricate dance of beautiful aromatics. A rich foundation of stone fruit is draped with pretty honeysuckle and accented by a bright clear note of grapefruit zest, a highlight usually present in our viognier. In the mouth, these elements merge into a lovely expression of tangerine blossom, nectarine and enticing minerality. What makes the entire experience so compelling is the pleasant round texture that transitions into a long, vibrant, refreshing finish. Like all viognier, this wine is ephemeral and is best enjoyed young. Enjoy drinking it now and then checking back in with it through this summer and the next."
