2006 Darioush Signature Viognier, Napa Valley, California, USA
'I discovered Darioush Khaledi's wines last year and have been really impressed. The acidity will keep this Viognier fresh for a good few years -- they are some of the brightest around. 2009-2012.' - James Hocking
Darioush Signature Viognier - Best of the Best

"A Taste for the Unusual" by ROBB REPORT, Brett Anderson
"One of the most unusual and delightful of Darioush winemaker Steve Devitt's wines is the fascinating and ethereal Viognier, which combines concentration with an oddly elusive, otherworldly quality that makes one think of sunlight and moonlight blended. Thick with heady scents of jasmine, orange blossom, and honeysuckle, the Darioush 2004 Signature Viognier produces an intense, lush melon flavor on the palate before evaporating in a finish as delicate as a mirage.”

Darioush Signature Viognier, Best of the Best - Domestic White Wines: by Brett Anderson
Robb Report For the Luxury Lifestyle - June 2005
"The 2003 Darioush Viognier Napa Valley possesses texture and flavors so concentrated, the wine almost suggests a honey made from the pollen of honeydew melon, jasmine, citrus blossom, and honeysuckle. Amazingly, this Rhone-style white is not especially sweet; rather it pools luxuriously on the palate, then, like a summer raindrop, evaporates refreshingly.”

This California Shiraz is a hugely vanilla, coffee-roasted aroma followed by a silky blueberry taste laced with pepper and cigar box.
ON THE WILD SIDE ~ When our merciless superego gains the upper hand, we must restore equilibrium by unleashing the id. What better way to achieve this aim than to uncork some truly wild wines?...
