Tasting-"Closerie Saint Antoine Champ de Carra Viognier 2015"

Name: Closerie Saint Antoine Champ de Carra Viognier 2015
Variety: Viognier
Region: Languedoc
Country: France
Year: 2015
Price: Regular $13, Sale $6.95

Winery Review: Light yellow color with green reflection. At first, this Viognier exhibits some citrus and pine aromas, after some time in the glass, it develops peach and mango. In the mouth, it is quite lovely with a great fruit forward approach. It is intense and balanced at the same time. The finish is long and offers an array of flavors, such as ripe peach and pear with creamy, lemony nuances.


My Review:  This white wine had hints of peaches and mangoes on the nose, very tropical.  Lightly crisp and sweet, the tropical flavors were just as prominent on the palette, displaying peaches, lemon and crème.  This wine is good enough to stand on its own but would be wonderful being paired with a fish meal.
