Wine Review:
2010 Peay Vineyards Viognier Estate, Sonoma Coast
Pale, green-tinged straw. Complex, fragrant bouquet evokes melon, nectarine, honey and violet, with slow-mounting spiciness. Sappy, silky, palate-staining pit fruit and candied ginger flavors are complicated by honeysuckle and anise notes. Finishes tangy and very long, with resonating ginger and floral qualities.
