Viognier is one of the world’s most beguiling white grapes—lush, perfumed, and famously difficult to grow. In this episode, we trace its origins in Condrieu, explore why it nearly vanished, and break down the exact traits that define it today: low acidity, high aromatics, stone-fruit richness, and a silky, weighty texture.You’ll learn how winemakers handle Viognier, where it thrives in the New and Old World, why oak can make or break it, and how this grape fits into exam frameworks like CSW, WSET, and CMS.If you’ve ever wondered why Viognier feels both luxurious and temperamental in the glass, this episode gives you the second look it deserves.
