Made from Organic Grapes
Nice golden yellow colour, reflective with some veil. Clean aroma, intensive and fine. Fruity with a lot of ripe peaches. In the mouth very pleasant, mild and round. 14.0 % alcohol well integrated. Smooth acid. In the finish a little bit too much alcohol, but in total very harmonic. Long aftertaste, still with peaches in the retro-olfaction. Charming.
Definitely not the wine to simply drink it in the evening. This wine needs corresponding food as partner. Exotic foods from India or the Caribbean always match, curry styled food could be a wonderful partner. However soft and semi-soft cheeses would fit perfectly. I'm a Raclette fan - and this wine is definitely a Raclette one.
The general opinion about Viognier is that the wines have to be drunk young. My experience is that Viogniers can be held for two years; sometimes five or more. This 2007 Viognier from Bonterra is on, perhaps a little bit over the top. Do not wait any longer.
