  W arctic char, rice and broccoli, soy maple glaze. Yummy dinner. Good combination. Beautiful golden color. Nice nose of fruit but also spice. The citrus comes through on finish and some dryness appeared. Overall a good wine and it needs food badly. Interesting because it is different from yr big chard. Let the other two rest for 1 or two yrs.

  Nice wine. Good complexity, nice finish. Good acidity to make it crisp.
  Would buy again.

  w red snapper with tomato, olive and caper sauce. absolutely yummy dinner and this was a perfect combination and the citrussy flavors worked with the strong flavors in the dish and the viognier other characteristics. this is pretty good but maybe a bit too citrussy. It clearly has some good balance between fruit, acid and backbone. this probably will do well with pork dishes

  Nose:
  Big rich, floral nose. Very nice. Can sit and smell this for hours as it evolves and seems to expand.
  Palate:
  Starts with a slight oily sensation that feels rich and unctuous, honey, grapefruit, good acidic backbone and a long lingering finish. Very nice and I will definitely buy again.

  Lemons and ripe cantaloupe on nose. Light bodied, with stony, acidic flavors on the palate- quite frankly, this was more Muscadet than Viognier in profile. I will hold my other bottles in hopes that this unwinds a bit.
