The 2006 Viognier “Hovah” saw 10% of the wine exposed to new French oak with the balance aged in tank. Light gold-colored; it exhibits a spicy perfume with notes of rose petal, peach, and apricot. Elegantly styled, the wine dances lightly across the palate into a lingering finish. Drink it over the next 1-2 years. The whites at Rolf Binder Wines are made by Christa Deana, Rolf Binder’s sister.Importer: Michael Opdahl, Joshua Tree Imports, Duarte, CA; www.rolfbinder.com
