Delicate, but feels a little flimsy. Missing some acidity. Seems lighter than 13% abv.
Update: I enjoyed this much more on the second day, so I bumped up my rating. More floral complexity and dry citrus came through. Also better not too cold - give it 30 minutes out of the fridge. — 3 years ago

Nice Rose. Pretty dark in color. Almost had a vanilla nose when I first opened it. Lots of flavor on this one. Nice floral notes and fruity finish. — 8 years ago
Volcanic? Definitely needs food. Lots of acid and minerals. — 2 years ago
Hands down, I am in love with this wine. Beautiful floral and citrus bouquet with Roquefort cheese, aloe, estragon, honeydew secretion, chalk and grapefruit. Sophisticated, fresh and savoury, perfectly balanced and flavourful. Long aftertaste full of lemon, cheese and chalk. Now some information that is not available on the label. Blend of Carricante, Catarratto, Inzolia, Grecanico, Minnella and Coda di Volpe. Only 10000 bottles produced. And (!) macerated on skins for 24 hours. Bravo. — 3 years ago
Before anything I’m compelled to admit my bias and admiration for Veritas Vineyards. I love the place. And with that out of the way, I’m going to describe my experience with the ‘15 Viognier as I experienced it. No fancy words or “miraculously subtle” sorts of “mandatory praise” that one often comes across when they like what they try. The nose of the ‘15 Veritas Viognier brings about that warm feeling on your shoulders of a sunny day, out in the meadow. The exquisite approach and palate imbue the very essence of spring water in summer- round, lush and satisfying for a long, long way. The juicy finish succinctly acts as a juicy, last look and reflection of that gorgeous, borderline resplendent day in the sun that you NEEDED. As a proper & fitting coda, and as an element that only further drew me into this gorgeously-simple experience- it was a twist-off... which truly and most genuinely completed this wine’s perfection, for tonight. — 5 years ago

Dark reddish purple. Inviting nose and medium-bodied palate of red berries, pomegranate, and a hint of toasted nuts on the moderate finish. Medium tannins. Medium acidity. A most typical example of mid-range Washington. The midpoint between New World fruit (but dark fruit) and Old World structure makes for an excellent American food wine. Pair with anything from burgers to roots to prime rib. Just do so by 2027. — 4 years ago

White wine, blend of Coda di Volpe and Falanghina grapes.
Clear, medium yellow colour.
On the nose citrus peel of medium intensity, especially lemon and orange. Strong minerality of volcanic rocks, expression of the soil where the grapes are grown.
Dry with high acidity on the palate and medium body. Nice pear flavour.
Medium-long finish. — 7 years ago
