Light straw colour with the slightest hint of a green tinge. Cono Sur's viognier remains consistent in its quality and a great value. Petrol, white peach, citrus notes, integrated with minerality and lip smacking acidity. A nice viscous mouthfeel. Can't beat the price quality ratio. Paired nicely with a grilled Moroccan spiced chicken breast. Sept. 2013.
The 2013 vintage. Plenty of rich tropical fruits, with hints of citrus. More viscosity than cooler climates whites and slightly lower acidity as well. Finishes with a touch of sweetness but avoids being cloying. A most enjoyable (and versatile) white, purchased on sale for $8.95. Alot more wine than one would expect at under $10. Tasted Nov 2013.
