Impressive, really impressive… I’m convinced the highest expression of Viognier is found in this tiny appellation. Bought this in a cave in CDP: showing orange-y gold color and ever evolving nose of rich ripe apricot, white flowers, honey, beeswax, orange and orange zest, lanolin, and more I can’t remember… oily rich w/out being viscous - generous saturated mid palate full of orange marmalade and flowers, just a mouthful of white flowers, musky. Just got better on Day 2. A true gem!
