Alban Estate 13' A bouquet of flowers & slate on the nose. A massive amount of depth! It's got everything going on. Citrusy flavors, floral flavors, minerality, & a splash of spice. Just the right blend of acidity. I do believe another year in the bottle would certainly help. It would also help with a 30 min decanting. I have to say it's a can't miss!! The best Viognier I've had from California! Drink over the next 6/8 years.

Split opinion on if this was corked. I didn't get that, but got some petrol aromas and spicy citrusy. Very opulent.

Gorgeous orange/gold color. Aromatic honey nose and a slightly oily resinous aromatic creamy honey taste. Holds up beautifully in the glass. Thanks for bringing Jeff!
