Tasting - Angove Viognier

Name:  Angove Viogner
Variety:    100% Viogner
Region:  South Australia
Country:  Australia
Year: Not Given
Price: $15 - on sale at VC for $5.95

Winery Review:  Bright light straw in colour with some green hues, this wine has a lush ripe tropical fruit aroma. This is a fuller bodied white which fills the mouth with heady flavours of apricot, peach and citrus.  Angove Nine Vines Viognier is perfect for today's relaxed life-style and is the ideal accompaniment to grilled prawns with chilli and garlic or roast pork.

My Review:  This wine had pineapple and citrus aromas.  It seemed refreshing and light with acids and sweetness.  On the palate I picked up on the tropical fruits, mainly pineapple.  There was also a green apple accent and some peaches on the finish.  I did not taste this wine with food.
