Copain "Catie's Corner" Viognier RRV 2005

Light yellow.

Unsalted cashew and fresh herb nose. Can see a glimpse of exotic fruit ..

Sweet, broad, mouth-filling. Exotic fruit (mango/peach) is more restrained than the Whetstone, as is mineral chew. No sulfide or new oak character obvious here. Made for immediate pleasure, it would seem.

Interesting contrast in style. Both are wonderful.

14% alcohol listed.
