Viognier Wine Tasting Notes
|
1998 Pine Ridge California Chenin Blanc - Viognier $11.00 Score: 89.0 "Pine Ridge has previously put out a Viognier with a little Chenin in it. This is just the opposite; a Chenin with a little (13%) Viognier in it. Its bone dry with a floral nose and a touch of tangerine, as well as full-blown mineral character on the palate and through the finish. A fine accompaniment to fish, shellfish, poultry, veal or pork." |
|
Rivefort de France Vin de Pays dOc Viognier $10.00 Score: 82.0 "French Viogniers tend to be less alcoholic and less exotic than their New World counterparts. This one has some citrus and light floral notes, as well as some leesy complexity, and a long, dry, slightly bitter finish that hints at oak." |
|
1998 Sobon Estate Shenandoah Valley of California Viognier $15.00 Score: 91.0 "This is one spectacular Viognier, drawing lots of oos and ahs from our consumer panel. Floral, with hints of peach on the nose, it becomes more foreceful on the palate, adding hints of citrus. Its medium-bodied, dry and quite crisp thru the finish. Pair with seafood, veal or Asian cuisine" |
