85 Points

Saturday, January 21, 2012 - Some exciting wines...some significant dissapointments (Waltham, MA): Color: pale yellow
Smell: show-stopping scents of tropical fruits, honeycomb, and floral notes that are almost perfumed they are so beautiful.
Taste: this was a HUGE disappointment! Now open almost 14 hours and some subtle favors of lemon and pie crust with a hint of banana and meringue linger.
Overall: to say I've never had a Viognier like this is absolutely true...but this was just such a big disappointment on the palate that I was crushed. If the palate is ever as complex as the nose, I'd be in love! I rated this "very good" because the nose was so complex that I'm still just sitting here smelling it...if not for the nose this would just be a "good" wine
