  Fruit-forward apple is your first impression. A nice honey-creaminess, with hints of citrus & pear. There's a bit of honeysuckle on the nose. Really nice, in spite of being consumed past it's window.

  WOW! this was fantastic, and a real contender for all around house white with its blend of viognier, semillon, and chardonnay. Depending on what you have it with, it picks out different nuances in the wine. Nose is very much semillon/chardonnay with aromas of yellow apple, pear, and a touch of peach from the viognier. Palate is soft and round with flavors of white nectarine, peach, and apple. Juicy finish. Terrific value, and very versatile. We had with jerk-marinated grilled tuna with mango and it behaved like a gewurz. Very, very interesting wine.
