Richard Bruno Viognier Paso Robles 2014
About the wine
Pure nectary deliciousness from the best vineyards in Paso
Richard Bruno, your Angel-funded winemaker, says:
- "I love Viognier and wanted to make a fragrant. floral wine with lots of delicious white fruit like peach, apricot, and lychee. This wine is from high elevation canyon vineyards in Paso Robles from Hog Canyon."
- "The aroma of this wine is simply intoxicating with its honeysuckle, apricot and clove scents. The palate feels like honey (without tasting sweet) and has a nectary texture, with a peachy white fruit taste, and a citrusy blood orange finish."
- "I'll pour this wine with a nice goat cheese and some honey and dried fruit. Maybe some dates or figs (if they're in season). If that sounds good, you should grab a couple bottles because I only made 800 cases and that won't last long."
Best before
To not to. It will age fine for 3 or more years, but why wait its delicious now.
Serving advice
A slight chill, not too cold.
Food match
I like Viognier with dried fruit, dates and figs with goat cheese and honey.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Richard Bruno
- Richard Bruno is exactly what we love in a winemaker– the quiet achiever behind the scenes at some of the world's most famous wine brands. He's made wine for Francis Ford Coppola and Don Sebastiani, the latter of which was named Winery of the Year TWICE under his watch.
- During his decades making wine for famous wineries and earning them 90+ scores, he has traveled all up and down California's coastal wine regions. His experience and familiarity with the terrain allow him to sniff out the best-bang-for-buck pretty much anywhere in the state.
- Launching one's wine brand is hard and expensive, so Richard is using Angel funding – and he's able to focus on winemaking, instead of selling wine.
