If you “talk dry and taste sweet,” as they say, you’ll like this wine. It’s not really dry at all. But it’s very rich in tropical fruit, wildflower, honey and spice flavors that are balanced out by good enough acidity.——S.H.(12/1/2007)—— 84

There are 500 cases of the honeysuckle, jasmine, and citrus-scented and flavored 2001 Viognier. This light to medium-bodied, crisp, tangy white is dominated by its fruit. Enjoy it over the next 12-18 months. This reliable source of high quality wines deserves more attention from consumers. Prices are reasonable given what's in the bottle.Tel.

This is a strange style of Claifornia Viognier, but an interesting one. The usual flower and fruit notes are undercut by much drier, tart notes of acidity. It's as if the winemaker wanted to make a leaner style of wine. It succeeds, but at the cost of losing varietal character. It's fresh and clean but easy to mistake for Sauvignon Blanc.——S.H.(12/15/2001)—— 84
