Van Westen Vineyards Viognier 2011

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaHoney, ginger, orange peel, lychee, rosewater, spicy, lees aromas. Fresh, round, juicy, elegant palate with a hint of sweetness and oiliness. Good vibrancy with creamsicle, ginger, lychee, rose petal, green apple, nettle and lemon oil flavours. Perhaps bit too floral but with finesse and balance. Should improve over the next year or so.Tasted: 29 January 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
