Smoking Loon Viognier 2012
California, United StatesIt's been a few years since we lasted tasted this wine and it appears to be a little skinnier and fresher and a little cheaper. The nose is a mix of honeysuckle and orange/pear fruit with a dash of crushed mango and rose oil. The entry is similar with a soft palate and a ripe tropical melon/ passion fruit a dash of spiced orange. Try with spicy chicken or pork dishes.Tasted: 24 November 2014Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $15.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
