2020 Montpellier Vineyards Viognier

California more

9/7/2021 - cono_sur Likes this wine: 88 points

Predominantly Viognier (83%) with Chardonnay (6.7%), Gewurztraminer (5%), and Muscat (5.3%) completing the blend. The medium intensity nose seems quiet with aromas of lemon, white floral, and herbs with hints of apple, pear, lychee, and beeswax. The mid-weighted palate is fleshy and viscous with ripe lemon, white flowers, herbal flavours. The bright, juicy acidity hides the vague impression of sweetness, with notes of ripe apple, vanilla, lychee and beeswax joining the flavour replays on the dry, juicy, slightly bitter and leesy finish, with very good length.

Drinkable - just. Soft wine with simple fruit flavors and a sweetish finish over green tannins. Not good, even for a bottom-level grocery store Cab. Pass at any price.

2005 Montpellier Vineyards Pinot Noir

Appearance: Clear and medium-deep.

Nose: Above-average intensity, with aromas of black pepper, strawberry, wet leaves, and a bit milky-cheesy.

Palate: A bit off-dry with low acidity and tannins, with a light body. There are flavors of prune, dairy, raisin, plum, and hints of blackcurrant.

Overall: The wine is over-oaked. The dairy component completely overtakes this wine. The nose isn’t amazing, and neither is the taste. This is your very run-of-the-mill pinot noir. It’s really as average as you can get. The finish is weak as well.

I give this an 83.

Fair/Good. Creamy peach and apricots on the front of the palate. It makes you think it's going to be sweet, but it's not. As the wine warmed to room temperature, the finish got a touch bitter. Otherwise, this would have been a terrific wine for $8. The slightly bitter finish, lowers it's rating a smidge. <Wow/Very Good/Good/Fair/Plonk>

Our third bottle of this wine. Consistently good with concentrated red fruit, silky mouthfeel, and light body. Great QPR at a price of $7.99.

Some earth and red cherry fruit. Light body and nice mouthfeel. High QPR. For $7.99 difficult to believe it was this good.

This wine shows the typical stance of the ‘gummy-bear’ syrah teams with the smoothness of a rhone. It has wonderful berry notes while giving forth good leather ansd sustain. Excellent value for the money.

Delicate aromas of peach and almond. Light bodied, but great on a hot day. Wonderful with seafood or shellfish. Perfect with fruits and cheeses. For under 10$ this wine is a real bargain.

This pinot shows black cherry, cola, wet earth and ample oak. It is a bit heavier on the palate than many of the california pinots I've tried from the 2008 vintage. Wonderful fruit, very light for the summer. Excellent!!

Spicy apple, pear and citrus aromas and flavors, with a peaches and cream finish. Very good balance though -- not at all cloying.

A pretty wine with aromas of honeysuckle, pear, and peach with flavors of apple, citrus zest and pear. With it's bright (but not over the top) acidity, this wine is a natural for summer sipping.

Not a bad Viognier for the price. Very light nose of fruit. Crisp on the palate and a little acidic but finishes well. There are better ones out there but this one's ok for the price.
