Clear pale yellow. Orange and honeysuckle nose - not too floral (which often is the case with CA Viognier). A little pineapple and spice on the palate - with a wonderful bit of salinity that contrasts beautifully with the fruit. Lovely finish with nice brace of minerality. Love it!

great example of the evolving CA Viognier style. Not as floral and fruit fwd as the Central Coast Rhone Rangers. That subtle restraint and the wonderfully complex finish wins me over. Still not convinced.

This one personally didn't sit well with me. I didn't have the floral notes I expect in a viognier, and the fruit was flat.
