The second vintage of Viognier for JM, it’s mostly Stillwater Creek fruit, with 6% Ciel du Cheval Roussanne. A lovely spicy nose starts it off, with sweet apricot, cooked peach and cinnamon notes. It’s a rich, ripe and creamy style of Viognier, spotted with spicy ginger. Unusual but well made and delicious. The gingerbread finish is quite distinctive. ——P.G.(12/31/2006)—— 89
