Tasting--Riebeek Cellars Viognier
Name: Riebeek Cellars
Variety: Viognier
Region: Swartland
Country: South Africa
Year: 2015
Price: Regular $12, Sale $7.95
Winery Review:
-" This is a luscious viognier, featuring a deep yellow color, that explodes with juicy peach and honeysuckle flavors. Viognier can easily become flabby, but this one manages to keep its figure within bounds. I recommend this for immediate, lip-smacking enjoyment."
My Review:
-89 Points
-This wine was very sweet on the nose with floral hints coming through. I had a hard time getting the wine to fully open up, however. To the taste, this wine was smooth with a bit of honey and almost a chapstick flavor. For me, this wine was pretty dull and could have used more body. I tried this wine on its own without food.
