Tasting - Angove Viognier 2009

  • Name: Angove Viognier 2009
  • Variety: Viognier
  • Region: South Australia
  • Country: Australia
  • Year: 2009
  • Price: $15, sale: $5.95
  • My Review: This Australian viognier was very atypical in some regards, but altogether unremarkable in my opinion. On the nose, this wine provided citrus and tropical fruit aromas which were nice. On the palate though, this wine was dry, very light, not at all noticeably acidic (which killed it for me), and fruity. Drinking this wine reminded me somewhat of drinking flavored water, like Vitamin Water, which I dislike. The fruity flavors that I sensed, like citrus and peach were nice, but I could not get past the other flaws of this wine.
