8.0

Full of stone fruit, peaches, nectarines, ripe and floral but not as heady or soapy as viognier can be. Exotic spices. Slight oak presence without weighing down the body. This is certainly not my favorite type of wine to drink, but it is a good example of a viognier that is as in balance as possible — 6 years ago
