Building on a grape's revival

Paul Boutinot Agencies is capitalising on the growing popularity of the Viognier grape variety by adding it to its Fruits of France single varietal range. Deborah Brooks, the company's md, said: "Viognier is a lesser known variety enjoying a renaissance as an alternative to Chardonnay. Like the other wines in this range it can be drunk as an aperitif and goes well with food, so we've included food pairing suggestions on the label." The company has sourced its Viognier from the Vin de Pays d'Oc. (Rsp: £3.99). {{DRINKS }}
