Shop Review:
A bright floral and citrusy wine made from the official wine variety of Virginia. Made in stainless steel tanks to highlight the fruit character, this wine is like drinking in a Virginia summer day. The aromatic intensity is very inviting; the palate dry and crisp with enough acidity to match up to many food pairings.
My Review:
This wine was definitely full of floral and citrus fruit smells. Very crisp, warm and inviting on the nose. Unlike the last Viognier, this one was not bad. On the palate the fruits really stuck out. It wasn't as rotten flavored as the previous Viognier. I found this wine to stick to the crisp citrus flavors, and have a nice balance of acidic and sweet. On the finish I got a little spice, just enough to draw you in for another sip. Overall a good wine, but I still have a little warming up to do to this varietal.
