The current Stevens Winery portfolio contains one white wine; the 2010 Divio Viognier was fermented and aged in a mix of neutral barrels and stainless steel. White peach, lychee, and orange blossom aromas inform the nose of a crisp, savory, concentrated, dry, nicely proportioned wine admirably reflecting the 2010 vintage’s vibrant natural acidity. Drink this tasty effort over the next 2-3 years. Located in Woodinville (along with 70-80 other wineries), Tim Stevens’ first vintage was 2001 with current production at 2500 cases. The vast majority of his fruit is sourced from Yakima Valley.Tel. (425) 424-9463; www.stevenswinery.com

This stylish Viognier is sourced from the Dineen vineyard. A cool site in a cool vintage yields a carefully made wine with gin-like spices and penetration. Lemon, lime and raw steel give it grip and length. Fine winemaking shows the strengths of a difficult vintage.——P.G.(4/1/2012)—— 91
