Oak Grove
Family Reserve California Viognier
California, USA
Star bright straw gold. Shy nose of dried white flowers and overripe bananas. Medium-full palate gives honeysuckle, ripe apple, and plantain. Medium acidity is a wee bit high for the variety in a place like California, but not so much as to be out of character and it adds to the food-friendliness. Medium short finish. A nice entry-level California Viognier from a solid value producer. Equally at home on the dinner table, at a fine restaurant, on a picky, or just sipping with cheese and charcuterie. Drink now.

Surprisingly delicious! Don’t mind the little oak on the finish, still refreshing

White flowers mixed with a honey mid palate. Good overall weight.

This one is o.k. It’s just a little bitter but I feel like there’s not a lot of flavor.
