I am not a fan of Viognier but time after time Alban kills it! Great acidity and hint of ginger. Not too much floral aftertaste

Quite good - refined and unique. Lots of grapefruit, peach, fresh cut flowers.

Delicious, liked it a little better when it wasn't super cold.

Interreting floral nose with some ripe yellow raisins and funky honey on the palate. A little weird.

Hmmm....interesting wine, ABV 15.4 - seems really high, first nose was mildew & dishwater, paired nicely with Turkey Pot Pie, not so crazy as a sipping wine. #alban #viognier #centralcoast #california #wine
