Seductive Old World Viognier with white floral and petrol aromas. Love it. The vines grow in chalk and clay soils on steep hillsides yielding a deep core of minerality in the finished wine.

Viognier food pairings: grilled pork, chicken.

Reviews and Ratings

Alex rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

This wine is fantastic! A "bomb" ofaroma and flavours, like green apple, dried white fruits, an outstanding floral amora. In mouth, it is very complex, with a great acidity!!
Molly Ziraldo CAPS rated this wine as 83/100 with the following review:

The nose on this wine is wonderful, like a very tropical on bold chard. Ripe pineapple, vanilla, honey and peach and the all those notes follow through onto the palate - full of flavor but lacked the finesse and elegance of a well made viognier. Overall its a big wine with some heat, and is better enjoyed with some heavier dishes to match the weight of the wine.
Peach, pear and baking spices on the nose of this full-bodied white wine. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
