Tasting - "Riebeek Cellars Viognier"

Name: Riebeek Cellars
Variety: Viognier
Region: Swartland
Country: South Africa
Year: 2015
Sale Price: $7.95
Regular Price: $12

Winery Notes:
This is a luscious viognier, featuring a deep yellow color, that explodes with juicy peach and honeysuckle flavors. Viognier can easily become flabby, but this one manages to keep its figure within bounds. I recommend this for immediate, lip-smacking enjoyment.





My review:
This wine essentially had no color, and was nearly entirely clear. It smelled of pears, and light fruit. The taste was rather bland, yet still bitter. There was a slight lemon taste. This wine was tasted without food.
