Last Nights Wine
2005 Yalumba "Y" Series Viognier
Origin: South Austrailia, Barossa Valley
Nose: Anise (licorice), peach, apricot
Taste: Apricot, slight citrus, mineral/earth
Mouthfeel: Rich, oily but not in a bad way--slick feeling on the tounge
Finish: Medium-Long
This is an excellent Viognier, and the second time we have tried it. Not too over the top on any of the flavors, but as you can see, displays the typical Viognier characteristics. It delivers these in a beautiful layered fashion that is exciting and delightful on each and every sip. (A) $11.95

Hi John,
Sounds nice, I tried their Chardonnay when attempting to find this Viognier.
Total Wine did not carry it last I checked by I will ask this weekend.
I think it was MSN that had a write up on this as an alternative white.
Have a nice day.
Hi John,
In case any of your readers are looking for this Viognier I found it at Whole Foods for $ 9.95.
Indeed it was everything you mentioned. Nice selection for the $$ !
Happy Sipping!
John...drinking on a weekday...shame on you...LOL
Please post and investigate Mr. and Ms. B. Juice's favorate.
Chateau Cruzeau 2000...A nice Bordeaux from the Pessac-Leognan appellation. No from the popular bank in Bordeaux but a fine wine with a great price point at $20.00. This got a great review from Spectator...cheers and I will see you and Megan soon...B. Juice
