this unusual semillon-Viognier blend is deep gold in colour. Good clarity. An 'oiliness' of pronounced Viognier comes through on the nose and some mild fruit notes (apricot) and nougat.

Medium golden in the glass. Floral aromas hit at first, but as the wine breaths it opens up to yellow apple, lime, oxidized peach. Medium-bodied, textural, smooth drinking, light alcohol. Could use a bit more on the acidity front. Even though their website says 10 years aging potential, I think this is a wine to smesh now and get it over with. Doesn't offer much more excitement beyond that.

It's an interesting wine, at least at first, though not very enjoyable. …
