Viognier is all about pretty, and this wine is pretty. Peaches, ripe pears and wild flowers. Expensive, highly regarded Viogniers from Condrieu in the northern Rhone often have a slightly pungent anise finish that's not my cup of tea. This wine does not have that quality, and I'm not complaining, although it might bring down my score if I were rating the wine. It glides down very nicely with a slightly sweet, slightly zingy finish. And at $6.99 a bottle, it's very easy on the wallet.
