Pale gold; medium plus intensity aromas of fresh nectarine, canned peaches in syrup, pineapple, mango, rose petals, intense vanilla, cream, cedar, toast; off dry, medium minus acid, high alcohol, full body, pronounced intensity flavors consistent with aromas; this is a big, thick, ripe wine; decadent in its flavors and new oak treatment; delicious, but drink sparingly (very high alcohol)

Aug 30th, 2014Light gold color. Best viognier I’ve ever had. Strong nectarine, honey, and buttered toast on the scent. Taste is tangy melon, followed by floral and earthy mineral notes, with a surprisingly spicy finish. So complicated.

Apr 26th, 2018Super hot - 17% alcohol. Opened up pretty nicely. Apple, vanilla, fairly buttery. Served with poached halibut with roasted parsnips and blood oranges. Wouldn't drink it alone, but Nice pairing
