Variety: Viognier
Region: South Australia
Country: Australia
Year: 2009
Price: $7.95
Vintage Cellar Review:
"88 Points, Wine Spectator. Bright and lively, this white is appealing for its pear, lychee and sweet spice character, which comes together smoothly against a silky texture."
My Review:
This Viognier has a nice light, buttery color. The aroma had apple, peach, grapefruit, and a hint of some floral scents. It initially tasted sweet and fruity with a bit of tartness. It was a little acidic and had some slight heat. There wasn't a whole lot to the mid-palate. The aftertaste was mildly oaky. I thought it was alright at first, not my favorite, but pretty good. But it seemed to get more bitter the more I drank it, so I think if I had a whole glass, I might not like it by the end. It wasn't a bad wine, but I wouldn't have to go out of my way to recommend it to anyone.
Pairings: I didn't try this with any food, but I think it would be good with a chicken dish.
