Minerally slate and sultry apricot and peach start this elegant white. A waxy palate and soft, feminine flavors of honeysuckle and flowers—as well as a burst of fruit—give the wine a rich but pretty character.——S.K.(3/1/2009)—— 88

A great value in Viognier, thanks to moderate use of oak, which also brightens the fruit in this wine. It has vibrant citrus in the mouth, with cantaloupe and a hint of vanilla from older oak. The aromas are similar, with some honeysuckle, while the body is full and creamy, despite racy acids. The alcohol (15.5%) shows through a bit on the finish, but overall a harmonious wine. Imported by Cape Classics.——M.D.(9/1/2006)—— 88
