This wine was born thanks to a sudden insight (tasting our Viognier grape during harvest, I recognized an extraordinary aromatic richness and decided to make a wine 100% Viognier). Giovin Re confirms year after year its special value. The must ferments half in used, cleaned and polished barriques and half in cement. It remains there until March before being bottled without fining. It’s ready for consumption after other 12 months and reaches its full expression in the two following years. It shows its best expression when accompanying savory and spicy dishes of strong personality.
