Cooper-Garrod 2014 Randall Grahm Clone Viognier (Santa Cruz Mountains)

Country: US / Randall Grahm Clone
Variety: Viognier California
Winery: Cooper-Garrod / Santa Cruz Mountains

The clonal selection related to the regional pioneer is the most interesting thing about this bottling, which is incredibly light and delicate, so much so that there is not tons of flavor. The nose shows very faint apple skins and key lime, and the palate barely offers pear skins and slate, though there is an intriguing texture.
