Bang average. Fat, flabby, overripe, lacking spine. Clean, but tasting of stewed pit fruits and utterly forgettable. #cuilleron #viognier — 2 years ago

Very interesting. So many floral and stone fruit aromas. Intensely juicy and supple on the palate. #viognier #russianwine #russia — 7 months ago

This 2015 vintage #condrieu was better than others I’ve tasted from #guigal I’d recommend it highly. It has so much typicity for what I consider the grape #viognier — 2 years ago

Vintage 2016 - Cuvée #viognier de Fontgaline, Made of the best plots, 6 months Allier barrel aging, #paysdoc. Refined smell of apricots. Juicy. It’s a simple but delicious wine. Partnered it with vegetables in aspic and fresh capuchins with pork in soy sauce. — 2 years ago

Viognier, from cool and high-altitude reaches of the Dentelles de Montmirail. Asian pear, acacia and just enough tartness and pucker to let you know this isn’t bruised, hot-climate, picked-too-late stuff. Impeccably balanced, long, graceful. I’d put this into a northern Rhône tasting anytime. #domainesaintamant #rhône #viognier — a year ago

I discovered this nice #cheninblanc #viognier blend a couple of years ago and this vintage continues the quality. Grassy notes blended with tropical fruit and some perfume floral stuff on the nose that must be from the Viognier. This one was well received on a Friday night get together at home. — 2 years ago
