This 2023 Brick Barn Viognier is the first from this vineyard, which is just west of Buellton outside the Sta. Rita Hills (so a relatively cool spot for Viognier). It’s a different animal than the Roll Ranch Viognier we’ve produced for decades. Roll Ranch is always fun to blind taste—“I’m sorta getting Viognier, but…” This wine leaps out of the glass to say “Hello, my name is Viognier.”

That said, it stops well shy of Viognier’s potential for blousy excess. There’s a fresh and airy quality that speaks to Santa Barbara County’s cooler climates. Still, there’s all the aromatic intensity you can expect: an effusive perfume of fresh melons with honeysuckle, white peach, and mangosteen. The palate kicks off with a sweet-tang blast of white raspberries and rich lychee, plus zesty lime and a sneaky thread of blonde honey. There’s no oiliness, but there is a certain roundness and softness that gives the wine an easy-going appeal.

It's perfect as a laid-back aperitif, or as a partner to intensely flavored dishes like a proper Moroccan tagine, tonkatsu ramen, or jambalaya.
