  Clean and crisp with sweet peach and apricot nose. Melon, apricot, and nectar but not too sweet. Great summer apertif.

  Nice light straw color with solid body. Some straw and vanilla on the nose. Well balance with a lot of acidity, with a strong minerality and some yeastiness. Nice long dry finish. Just a little hot on the finish that put a little unpleasant tingle into your nose. This would be 90+ awesome except for the effect on the nose which I was not crazy about. Probably time to drink up if you still have it in the cellar.

  Le vin est doré assez soutenu. Fruits tropicaux, citron confit, fleurs, épices et miel brut. Moyennement long, acidité faible et une certaine impression de lourdeur. L’alcool fini aussi par ressortir. Un brin décevant.

  Wonderful balance exhibited in this Viognier. Stone fruits with great acicity. Good nose with long finish. surprising complexity at this price point. Set off our Chicken Piccata beautifully.

  This viognier is always a favorite. Paired it with a unique scampi dish, flavored with spinach and licorice. Th full body of this wine held up beautifully. It exhibited tropical fruit notes and excellent acicidity..very well balanced..
