2019 vintage. Had a taster at work and took the rest home. Didn't notice the heat upon first tasting, but a little excessive upon revisiting. Apricot, nectarine, white grapefruit pith, jasmine, dried orange peel, little back end of clotted cream. Oak definitely more prominent second time around, though richness and concentration persistent throughout. Well-executed manifestation of barrel-fermented Viognier, which I find difficult to execute.
