Product Notes

Domaine François Villard Les Contours de Deponcins Viognier is a wine from the Northern Rhône region of France. It is made from Viognier grapes, a variety known for its floral and aromatic qualities, grown on the steep slopes of the Les Tournonaire vineyard. The wine is both rich and complex, with a beautifully balanced acidity and a distinctive mineral quality. It has a golden hue and aromas of apricot, honey, and candied lemon peel that develop into flavors of ripe, juicy peach, with a long and satisfying finish. François Villard is known for producing some of the best Viogniers in the Rhône Valley, and Les Contours de Deponcins is no exception, a true expression of the terroir and the passion of the winemaker.
