  This wine is still drinking fantastically! Aromas of dried apricot, lychee, blossom honey, and honeysuckle. Nice round tropical, slightly citrusy, flavors on the palate. Still a touch of unresolved tannin. Nice acidity. Paired well with a stone ground mustard salmon arugula salad.

  Pretty good RRV Viognier. Have to agree with previous posts. Excellent with broiled halibut, but a very nice wine to drink even without food. Would definitely buy again.

  For the appellation, it's wonderful. For the West Coast, ditto. Nicely more viscous than many. The winemaker again shows a clear affinity for European technique. I like the white pepper finish. It tastes like viognier, just as it should.

  This is one of the better Viognier's in the Russian River Valley. Layers of stone fruit mixed in with a crisp minerality. Delicious.
