January 22, 2022 - Big, ripe viognier with an apricot-stone fruit-chalky mineral profile. Noticeable viscosity. The style is likely not for everyone but it's nice wine. Paired with saffron risotto with seafood. Drink up

November 7, 2021 - Light to medium gold color. Peach-like bouquet. On the palate, this Viognier is viscous with ripe rich fruit extract and low acidity. Touch of oak in its medium-long finish

May 23, 2021 - Very consistent from year to year. Big, ripe viognier with the characteristic Tomboy apricot-stone fruit-chalky mineral profile. A touch more acidity in 2018. The style is likely not for everyone but it's nice wine. Not one to age

MPLehman Does not like this wine:
January 24, 2021 - I believe this bottle had gone bad. Cellared correctly so not sure what the problem was. Vinagery and a slight sparkly..

November 10, 2020 - Very good. Golden in color. Oak/lemon on the nose. Heavy, almost syrupy texture with notes of honey. Not my favorite HS.
