Still life left. Floral, slate, grapefruit, lemon and spice. Medium finish. Had this several times and it always delivers. 92 points Day 3: Very nice and holding form. Lemon, minerals, wafer, tropical fruit and floral notes. This is one of the best examples of Viognier in the US. 93 points Recommendation: Buy!

Deep, concentrated yellow-green color. Stuffy, damp nose with aromas of bruised apples, some rotting brown apples, a little bit of dull earthiness and a hint of apple peel. The wine is full-bodied, oily and somewhat tired on the palate with flavors of greengage, some sharp aldehydic green apple flavors of Fino Sherry, light notes of stony minerality and a touch of dusty earth. Medium-plus acidity. Dull, short and tired finish with somewhat aldehydic aftertaste of sorrel, hay, some green almonds and a hint of tangy Fino Sherry salinity.
A wine that is either past its peak or then its cork has dried up and leaked some air into the bottle. In a lousy condition.

Washington State (Excelsior, MN): Another solid showing of this wine with floral, orange slice, honey suckles and pear. Medium finish and good acidity. Enjoyed by the group. Recommendation: Drink now.

High acidity, pure. An ethereal aroma of honey develops gently in the glass.
