  Good flavors of guava, papaya, pear, apricot and some muskyness going on as well. Big for a Viognier, and a bit clunky in my opinion...but still enjoyable.

  by far superior to this '06.

  -- popped and poured --
  -- tasted non-blind --
  
  NOSE: a honeyed bouquet with oak and brioche on the attack; notes of apricot and chalky minerality bring up the rear.
  
  BODY: straw yellow color; medium bodied.
  
  TASTE: A nice pineapple flavor gives way to pear on the long finish. Notes of musk melons emerge after the bottle has been open a couple of hours. There's a big hole going from mid to rear palate, and the finish is a bit hot, but overall this is good, although not complex.
  
  B: 50, 5, 11, 15, 7 = 88
