This wine was recommended, but no tasting note was given.

From one of the original Rhone Rangers, a wine that captures the flamboyant side of this chameleon grape, with its array of tropical fruit, flower and spice flavors, but never loses balance. That’s because of the near-perfect acids and deft oaking. It’s amazing how a Viognier this ripely fruity is also complex. ——S.H.(2/1/2004)—— 91

Several more up and coming wines from the Vin du Mistral series include the 1994 Viognier, a two-thirds barrel-fermented/one-third tank-fermented wine of which there are 2,000 cases available. It is the right stuff, with plenty of apricot, peach, and honey in both the aromas and flavors, medium body, crisp acidity, and gobs of freshness and zestiness. Tel. (707) 963-2745
