Produced from vines grown in a North-South orientation, this is a very attractively styled Viognier. Perfumed and ripe, it displays classic notes of apricot and nectarine with pinches of spice. It''s well harnessed with good persistence of flavour and a refreshing finish.

A complex, tasty and remarkably affordable Viognier that’s sure to please. Notes of ripe apricot, honeysuckle and ginger spice mingle with the toasty sweet vanilla oak nuances throughout. Balanced and softly creamy in the mouth with flavors of ripe Anjou pear and lightly grilled peaches leading through to the long, lingering finish. Ready to drink now but should also keep well for another year.——L.B.(11/1/2010)—— 89
