The White Knight Clarksburg Viognier
Clarksburg, Central Valley, California, USA
Light golden in color.
Beautiful nose of white flowers, lemons, citrus, grass, honey, light oregano, minerals, white pepper and bitter herbs.
Light to medium in body with medium acidity crisp and engaging.
Dry on the palate with lemons, green apples, grapefruits, minerals, spices, bitter herbs and white pepper.
Medium plus on the finish with tangy grapefruits and bitter almonds.
This is a nice Viognier from California. Gorgeous nose and simpler on the palate. Well balanced and a little bitter on the ending. An above-average white wine.
Good by itself or with food, but needs to be chilled properly.
Feels like a Sauvignon Blanc on the palate, actually.
I paired it with a cheese plate and crackers.
On the back label it says : "Saving the world from the tyranny of Chardonnay", which I loved 😉
13.5% alcohol by volume.

Smells like Honeycomb cereal. Lighter on the palate with similar honey/bready notes. Really good for the price.

A soft and expressive wine. Expect some apple, pear, nectarine, and honeysuckle on the palate.

More funky than I expected. In a good way. Would drink again.

Smells of honeycomb with tart green apples balance out this light and fruit forward wine. Very refreshing
