One of the top sites in the Northwest for Viognier is Gamache along the White Bluffs, and Noah Reed Fox blends those grapes with those from historic Conner Lee for one of the category’s few Platinum winners in 2023. Aromas are led by hints of honeydew melon, nectarine, almond and orange zest. On the palate, there’s lemon zest and green apple with a burst of pink grapefruit to extend the finish of this medium-bodied Viognier.
