Tasting Notes / Comments: | A pale yellow Argentinean Viognier. Sharp acidic smell initially becoming sweeter with honey suckle and a little vanilla. The citrus carries through in the taste but there is plenty of sweetness. Some pears and apricots. 'Enjoying Viognier' (2001 vintage)
A lovely lemon tinged aroma with that slightly heady honeysuckle perfume. Dry palate and not oily or confected, medium bodied with a lovely long aftertaste. Andrew Barrow (2001 vintage)
