February 23, 2019 - Great value in this Santa Barbara Viognier. Tropical fruit and mineral with just a little sweetness.

November 16, 2018 - What an outstanding bottle of Viognier. I am guessing most of us are not too familiar with this winery. I discovered it last year in some wine blog review and every bottle of the three or four varietals I have tried is a treat. Under the radar and great QPR.

October 31, 2018 - Pale yellow. A fresh, clean and decidedly not Viognier-like nose offers aromas of waxy yellow apple, lees, and reductive minerality. Medium bodied on the palate with medium+ acidity, this is lively and, honestly, tasty enough but has zero varietal character. Blind I would this some sort of Mâcon Chardonnay, I think.
