Last night we enjoyed a wine from Briar Rose Winery. Citronier was a white wine with natural lemon flavor and is produced from Viognier and lemons. If you are a fan of lemons or lemon juice this may be the perfect wine for you. With an alcohol level of 12.5 percent this wine offered an aroma and taste of many lemon nuances. The wine finished with a hint of sweetness yielding to dryness. Citronier pairs well with dinner or is a good afternoon drink on a hot afternoon.
Briar Rose Winery is located in Temecula Valley, Califonria and if you are in the area is a must visit winery. Appointments are necessary to visit. It is both delightful and their story is most unusual.
Cheers! Kathy
