Variety: Viognier
Region: Southern Australia
Country: Australia
Year: 2009

Winery Review:

Bright and lively, this white is appealing for its pear, lychee, and sweet spice character, which comes together smoothly against a silky texture.
-Wine Spectator, 88 points

My review:
Smell - This wine was just really light on the nose. I smelled a lot of spices, but that did not overpower the fruitiness of the aroma.


Taste - This wine was super light. I completely understand the silky description. This wine was very silky in my mouth, which was a really cool feeling! The wine was really fruity, but I could not identify the fruit. I think the fruit flavor I was tasting was the lychee flavor from the description, but I have not had lychee fruit, therefore I don't know what that tastes like. 

I tasted this wine without food.
