Van Westen Vineyards Viognier 2015

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaWarm, ripe, sweet nose of pears and apricots. Strangely sweet and bitter on entry with sugared pear, lime rind, orange peel and oil flavours that finish with a warm burn and spice. It’s viognier and it’s rich but we like it better with some freshness. Turkey or ham would be a good match for this year’s version.Tasted: 20 January 2017Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
