Tasting- Angove Nine Vines Viognier



Name: Angove Nine Vines Viognier
Variety: Viognier
Country: Australia
Region: N/A
Year: 2009
Price: $5.95

Wine Shop Review: Bright light straw in color with some green hues, this wine has a lush tropical fruit aroma. This is a fuller bodied white which fills the mouth with heady flavors of apricot, peach and citrus. Angove Nine Vines Viognier is perfect for today’s relaxed life-style and is the ideal accompaniment to grilled prawns with chili and garlic or pork roast.
My Review: This Viognier was extremely interesting. It had a slight green hue to it, which I really think is cool to see in a white wine. It had a nice nose with hints of apricot, orange, and other citrus hints. This also had a nice taste, but was different to my palate. It was dry, but still had a nice body to fill my mouth with the tropical fruit notes. This would be very nice to drink with anything that just came off the grill during the summertime, and I would certainly drink it again.

I did not taste this wine with food.
