Viognier Piemonte Biologico

Collection: Organic Viognier Piedmont

Viognier is one of the most fascinating and mysterious white grape varieties in the world, originating from the northern Rhône Valley in France, where it produces the legendary Condrieu—one of the rarest and most expensive white wines in the world. Its history is almost a story of survival: in the 1960s, it was practically extinct, with fewer than 14 hectares cultivated worldwide. Its resurgence has been slow and arduous, led by a few visionary producers who believed in its potential.

The presence of Viognier in Piedmont is a recent and experimental story: some producers in the Langhe and Monferrato began cultivating it in the 2000s, attracted by its aromatic complexity and its ability to adapt to continental climates with significant temperature variations. The result is a wine that retains the varietal characteristics of Viognier—the intense aromas of peach, apricot, and flowers—but with a freshness and minerality that the Rhône does not always offer. A rarity that fits perfectly into our selection of organic Piedmontese wines.

Curiosity: Viognier is one of the few white grape varieties that is traditionally co-fermented with a red grape variety: in Côte-Rôtie, one of the most prestigious appellations in the Rhône, producers add up to 20% Viognier to Syrah during fermentation. The result is a red wine with floral aromas and unusual softness—an ancient technique that is now being rediscovered in Italy as well.

Discover the price of organic Piedmont Viognier in our selection: brilliant golden yellow color, intense aromas of yellow peach, ripe apricot, violet, jasmine, and a spicy note of ginger. On the palate, it is soft, enveloping, with a structure that balances the aromatic richness. You can find it among our organic white wines, along with other selected labels from small certified producers. Pairings: foie gras, roast chicken with aromatic herbs, Moroccan and North African cuisine, soft cheeses, crustaceans with buttery sauces.
