  Very slightly oxidized nose : honeycomb, freshly laundered thick flannel, white peach, orange zest, green melon rind, sawdust. Really impressive for 8 year old viognier, let alone from WA state. Viscous but not heavy, flat, or flabby. Still good acidic cut, sweet peach juice, orange bitters, pomelo, tangerine, white pepper, and an odd but delicious dried salty crustacean shell finish. Wow. Held up beautufully to a clean out the frig chicken fried rice, bok choy, flavored with ginger, thai hot sauce, orange zest , grated bottarga, and bottled teriyaki. This won’t get better, as after an hour it takes on sherried notes, but still a great treat.

  Really quite fantastic.
  
  This was really quite easily the best WA white wine I’ve ever had.
  
  Extremely concentrated both on the nose and the palate. Very fragrant, floral nose. Long finish. Good acidity.
  
  Beeswax, underripe melon/cantaloupe, any number of flowers, etc.

  Fascinating Viognier. Viscous, but not oily, mouth filling and structured, with nearly perfect acidity, obvious typicity and subtle minerality. The finish offered an analog of a fine PNW Oyster when sipped after a bite of a bacon-wrapped scallop. Wish I had more....

  One of the finest Viogniers I have ever tasted outside of the Condrieu , sweet apple, peach and honey notes. Creamy and supple - this was a star of the Reynvaan tasting
