WINE DESCRIPTION
Miraflores Estate Viognier is a premium white wine produced by Miraflores Winery, a renowned winery located in the El Dorado appellation of California. The vineyard features high elevation, rocky soils, and a cool climate, which allows the Viognier grapes to develop complex flavors and aromas. The winemaking process involves hand-harvesting the grapes and fermenting them in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fruit's natural flavors and aromas. The resulting wine is a full-bodied, aromatic wine with notes of peach, apricot, and honeysuckle. It has a rich texture and a long, smooth finish, making it an excellent choice for pairing with seafood, poultry, or spicy dishes.

ORIGINS
Winery: Miraflores
Region: Sierra Foothills
The Sierra Foothills wine region is located in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in California, USA.
The discovery of gold near Sutter Mill in 1848 led to the California Gold Rush, resulting in many settlers from Southern Europe who established vineyards to supply them with wine. By the 1860s, the Sierra Foothills wine industry was booming before the depression and Prohibition reduced the industry to just a few vineyards.CUSTOMER RATING
