Tasting-Angove Family Winemakers Nine Vines Variety: Viognier (white)-

Name: Angove Family Winemakers Nine Vines
Variety: Viognier
Region:N/A
Country: South Africa
Year: 2009
Price:$15

Shop/wine critic/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: It smells of slightly sweetened wet straw. The taste is almost entirely that off wine experience that a lot of whites give. It’s a bit tart with a strangely chalky component and then an acid finish.

CONCLUSION: Would not drink again.


Not tasted with food
