Citrus and apple fruit either the distinctive lime notes of a Eden Valley Riesling. Refreshing and fully enjoyable. Some hints of petrol for those Riesling lovers… — 4 days ago

They make a brilliant cab, too, as I’m sure you are aware…

Yalumba

The Virgilius Eden Valley Viognier 2018

Bob McDonald
9.2

See previous note 105 weeks ago. Australia’s premier example of a straight Viognier. Notes of Apricot and Honeysuckle. Quite luscious on the palate with low acid. Finishes with a skinnsy bitter note which is quite refreshing. — 3 months ago

@Bob McDonald, I’ve never heard of this wine, and I have visited Yalumba twice (albeit about 35 years ago) — how large is the production of this wine?

@Doug Powers Yalumba had been trialling Viognier for a while before releasing it commercially. They consider this as their premium white wine. I wouldn’t think it is a huge production but Dr Google may have the answers.

It’s just too young. The older 2011 version was excellent.

And for all those concerned, will take a vertical blind tasting of Mount Eden Estate Santa Cruz Mountains Cabernet Sauvignon over any time frame vs any Napa or Sonoma concern with the possible exception of Diamond Creek and Dunn. This winery is criminally underrated. Rarely explosive. Consistent, subtle and sneaky. Cabs are usually 75%+ Cab Sauv with Merlot, PV, CF blended in. Structured. Not flashy but uncommon balance and a definite nod/homage to the days of yore.

For all that said about the chard and cabernet, can take or leave the pinot. Always nice. Some years have better depth. It’s an aging pinot…like a decade plus before things start to sort out and assemble.

@Somm David T They’ve always lagged the average price point. Second label Domaine Eden (old Cinnabar property) makes some pretty solid stuff most vintages.
