Description
Something tells me I’m a little late coming to this party … my fellow wine writers have been jumping all over this wine all summer long, and now I feel like I am the last one hopping onto the bandwagon to sing its praises. This is a case of better late than never as I put my two cents worth in. This wine has finally caught the eye of those in the LCBO’s Vintages department too, as it hit the shelves in mid-September and it should sell out quickly. If you’re lucky enough to see this wine and put your hands on a bottle here are the reasons to buy it. A floral, peachy and pear laden nose; white peach, floral, apple and tropical fruit on the palate; a great refreshing and tasty finish – and it’s not $49 (believe it or not, some yahoo out Niagara way, has his Viognier priced that high, making this an even better bargain). Summer still exists if you have a bottle if this kickin’ around, no matter how close to Christmas it is.
