Viognier with a Vibe. This wine is basically a peachy daydream in a glass. It kicks off with a burst of freshness and acidity that’s unusually lively for a Viognier, like it had a double espresso before showing up. Think white fleshy peach doing yoga in a field of jasmine and chamomile, aromatic, but not the kind that slaps you in the face with a bouquet. Just enough to make you feel fancy.
Then comes the minerality: it starts with a whisper on the nose and ends with a full-on salty surprise mic drop on your palate. Like licking a rock at Hanlon's Point (but in a good way, really). Citrus? Oh yes. Lemon juice, lemon zest, maybe even lemon doing cartwheels. And a cameo from nectarine just to keep things juicy.
It’s got drive, it’s got energy, and it’s got texture. Like a wine that knows how to dance and write a killer short story. That light bitterness at the back? It’s the plot twist that keeps you turning the page… or, in this case, cracking another bottle. — 10 months ago

I fell in love with this wine at the same time I fell in love with a guy 800 miles away but he was really lovely and had good taste so this wine is actually pretty great. Velvety like middle school yoga pants, like smooth jazz in a cool retro lounge in downtown Indianapolis, like milk with spaghetti. For a $12 bottle it's fresh like a new j crew sweater and cozy like one too. — 8 years ago

Yes it is dark cherry (eye roll) but if you take a little into your mouth and do hot yoga-style Ujjayi breathing you get a little lightly roasted fennel! It's fantastic. Try it today. Try it. Try it now. — 10 years ago

The ripeness of the 2018 vintage gives an almost Syrah/Viognier character to the Chinon La Croix Boissée, which offers sweet black fruit and a creamy apricot note. Sumptuous yet never ever opulent, it's almost as if the wine's just done a yoga class. Plentiful tannins give the inside of your cheeks a chalky rub, while there's surprising freshness considering the ripeness, leading to a lengthy finish. This is a baby that will turn out to be a great adult. (Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, October 2021)

Relatively full bodied. Not necessarily a plus size, but definitely athletic. Clean yoga mats, varnish, wine grapes and black cherry. A great traditional red. I imagine it’s the type of wine Keanu would have made in A Walk in The Clouds. — 9 years ago

#atlasofwine studying Condrieu, Northern Rhone viognier. Fermented in barrique with battonage, malo in barrique, 9 months elevage in barrique. I didn't think I could love varietal expressions of viognier. One of the lessons from my recent yoga immersion is appropriate: "Worse than ignorance is certainty." This wine is fireworks; voluptuous fruit, generous body, creamy vanillin, candied and dried orchard fruits, while elegantly balanced. Thanks @Nick Apone for the suggestion. — 10 years ago

Bent my mind which honestly, could use some yoga at least. Nuttiness is my fave tasting note but there’s Christmas and a cedar hope chest in there sluiced with some lemon zest. But my most honest review will always be my synesthesia between wine and clothes so here goes: Suede pant suit in burgundy and beige the top and bottom half of each. Bam. — 3 years ago

100% Syrah from vines that’s are 10-65 years old and managed manually for the most part. Fermented in concrete and aged for two years in barrels of various sizes but mostly larger (225L-600L). Popped and poured. This bottle took about ten minutes to open but when it did, ohhhhh baby! On the nose it was a mix of blue fruits, dark cherry, and a high end yoga studio...you know, the ones with incense of sandalwood, gardenia and bergamot...basically everything but the patchouli. On the palate, things got even more interesting with firm blue fruits, tart dark cherries, lightly spiced meats and minerals. The finish lasts for five minutes. In fact, there is crazy effect after a couple of minutes that reminds me of Acmella oleracea (Sichuan buttons or buzz buttons). Absolutely wild! Never had a wine do that. No doubt, this is a Saint-Joseph of the highest level. Definitely a producer to keep an eye out for. — 6 years ago

Blackberry, oak, vanilla, spices - a little strong, which for me is a big win. Your Dad's cigar box meets a fruity cab in the best way possible. Fantastic with truffle mac n cheese and yoga pants. — 9 years ago
