August 27, 2008 - This is a young, crisp, leaner styled Viognier. Nice citrus fruits mingle with stony, mineral laced stone fruit flavors to complete this acid driven fresh tasting wine. I would pair this with leaner white fish and light shellfish dishes, even lighter poultry dishes.
Color – Bright yellow
Nose – Stony minerals, lemons and limes
Palate/Finish – The entry is light and laser like with lemons and limes. By mid-palate this Viognier gains some weight from the peachy stone fruit and sweeter lemon flavors that peak through. The finish is clean and crisp, typical “rocks and fruit” from this Provencal wine.
This wine paired well with sushi one night and cheese the next night! -

July 10, 2008 - Nice acidity and mouthfeel. Would have scored higher but it kind of fell apart on the finish.
