Natalie's Score: 90/100

Very pretty French white wine, with floral notes, melon and lychee. Terrific minerality. Medium-bodied with balanced acidity. Viognier is such an aromatic white wine grape, perfectly suited to Asian and Thai dishes, as well as to a wide variety of mild to medium curries and spices. Although Viognier is more traditionally associated with the northern Rhône Valley, it's finding lovely expression in the Midi region, a bit more to the south in France. Try it lobster in melted butter.

Viognier food pairings: Thai coconut shrimp, lamb tangine, smoked ham, mild spices and curries.

Andrew Bernardo rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Stunning wine featuring tropical fruit, apple, coconut and lime. A great summer sipper or seafood ceviche. 90 points. (www.ottawawinejournal.com)
Viognier is usually to the northern Rhône Valley, but is finding its way around other wine growing regions in France as well as in new world wine regions. This is a juicy, peach, pear and ripe nectarine Viognier done right and easy to drink as well. - Community Wine Reviews
