This one really rubs me the wrong way. I love Viognier, but this ultra-acidy expression is not to my taste. Also, I'm getting a lot of oak on this. Am I right? The earthy roundness coupled with the mid-palette sweetness is unctuous. I'm gonna put this one on my list of don'ts along with South African Chenin Blanc and New Zealand Sauvingon Blancs. Sorry 'bout it.

I love Viognier's floral flavor. This is first time to drink California one. Is is a bit high density, ripened taste, or should be sweet? Is it the feature from the place?@599,TQ,161005

A little sweet, but still smooth and enjoyable.
