My Review - I wanted to try a Viognier for the first time, so I went to local wine store and he highly recommend this one. When I was viewing one of the wine tasting review videos during the quiz, Gary V. said one of the Viogner's tasted like corn cake, so I figured this one had to be good. The color of the wine was deep, complex green. A little bit darker and more complex than recent whites I have tried. The scent was lemon with a little vanilla. The taste was medium bodied, somewhat acidic, and a lemony taste to it. I was a little disappointed in this wine. I hyped it up pretty high and the taste just didn't do it for me. It may be because I'm a big fan of complex, full bodied wines and this was a little light on the palate, but I definitely didn't get any corn cake/dessert flavors from this one. That being said this was pretty good just not as good as I hoped, rating 6/10.
Food- None
