2013 this for the $ lovely, full honeydew melon bright acidity. It's a great wine at a better price.

Pretty plane jane for Rhine. Not all that much weight and a bit off on the nose.

Nov 12th, 2013Normally not a fan of Couron...well...not a fan of the importer, but I'm warming up to this domain. Super traditional CDR Viognier. Light tropical essence with a tinge of French oak and a surprising ripe pear and buttery finish. $11 / 88pts

Oct 26th, 2013Wines like this remind me why I want to live in France. Had to stop myself from guzzling it but did buy a full glass after sampling it in a flight. Honey, yellow apple, touch of vanilla, maybe some nutmeg? Or something. A bit orange peely but supple on the finish.

Mar 22nd, 2015Not bad. Brighter than most Viognier with a tad more acid. Lighter body. Good for a salad and a sammich.
