Information
Family owned and operated since 1990 by Ron and Jamie McManis, McManis Family Vineyards now sustainably farms over 3,600 acres of premium wine grapes located throughout the Northern interior and Clarksburg Delta regions of California. Justin McManis, Tanya McManis Heuvel, and son-in-law Dirk Heuvel, the fifth generation of family farmers, all work full time at McManis Family Vineyards.
The McManis family has been growing grapes in this region for five generations. McManis Family Vineyards has been one of the leading wine and grape producers since 1990. Attention to detail comes in the form of small lot fermentations, whole cluster pressing and oak aging - all designed to provide McManis Family Vineyards the tools they need to produce the finest wines possible.
In 1990 Ron and his wife Jamie, bought their first vineyard and in 1995 McManis Family Vineyards was formed with the purpose-built winery arriving by the end of the Millennium. Now the McManis family own over 2,600 acres between the Ripon area and Lodi in California’s northern interior region.
Tasting Note
McManis Family Vineyards Viognier has a bright hue and is medium straw in colour. This wine is filled with big, bright fruit aromas of pear and peach. The wine is viscous and creamy in the mouth. All the flavour promised by the nose is amply delivered with a long finish.
Food Match
A lovely match with spicy foods such as Thai or Indian cuisine, or a Moroccan tagine.
