Good. Creamy texture, like fresh peaches, with enough acidity to keep it from cloying. Better the first night than the second. QPR is pretty good here. <Wow/Very Good/Good/Fair/Plonk>

Intense florals and fruit, this is controversial. You like it or you don't. Reminds me of taking floral Torrontes or Symphony wines to a party and some people just turned up thier nose. To me an admirable (and bold) bottling of Viognier, not too sweet but tons of flavors to savor.

Pale yellow color. Honeysuckle, flowers and melon on the nose. Light mineral, touch of grapefruit, full mouth, nice clean, dry finish. Good compliment to artichokes, tasty contrast to fava beans and pecorino cheese -- made the wine taste sweet. Really liked this viognier.

Sharp, fruit-ish, but not a dessert/fruit-heavy/super-sweet wine. Not 100% for me but I like it, especially the sharp quality and especially for a price of ~10-13.

Wow, what a pleasant surprise for a $10 Lodi bottling...Medium straw in color, offering up a rich nose of melon, apricot and melon, which carry to the palate, emphasisziing apricot, white peach and honeysuckle flavors, with some nice balancing acidity and a good dose of chalky minerality. Rich, yet refreshing and a real pleasure.
