May 27th, 2016Nothing like the old world, but excellent all the same. Finishing sweet and utterly complex.
@Paul Treadway we need to do a tasting with @David A Lentine. Where are you located?

12' Favia Suize Viognier. Drink at cellar temperature, if not a little warmer. The complexity of this wine is simply amazing. An abundance of floral & citrusy notes on the nose. I get tropical fruits, glazed donut, orange peel, Keylime pie.The acidity is supple/light throughout the glass. Bed rock & slate are also mangled in that glass. Can't help but notice that the color is a little darker (then 10 months ago). Drinking wonderfully now. It also has the potential to age a few more years!

Feb 19th, 201612' Favia Suize. Pale yellow in color. Honeysuckle & wildflowers on the nose...is quite inviting. Big and rich front & middle palate. I get donut glaze, orange peel, key lime pie. Layers of floral notes, with a blast of stones, acidity on the backside. Full-bodied . 5/7 years in it. Great with Thai food tonight!
The wonderful thing about a great Viognier... you taste a little bit of everything in it. Love that!

Pure and expressive nose. Honeyed palate. Unique and almost ostentatious. But in a good way.......
