Made well, but it's seen too much oak. Ripe pineapple, banana cream, and vanilla over shine the delicate white florals I would expect. Overripe, very creamy, and with quite a lengthy finish.

Very tasty oaked Viognier. Better oak integration and higher honeyed notes would have lead to a higher score. Possibly could age very well.

Nice alternative to Chardonnay with salmon and Brussels sprouts. Not sweet like so many white wines are.

A wonderful, balanced white wine. Not to sweet. Crisp , clean summer day wine hints of Apple notes. Good value.
