Tasting - "Angove Viognier"

NameAngove Viognier
Variety: Viognier
Region: South Australia
Country: Australia
Year: 2009
Price: $15 (sale: $7.95)

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: On the nose, this wine had a very floral and lime-like taste to it.  It was very mild, and not overpowering, just right in my opinion.  The taste was very mild, not very fruity, and well-balanced.  It had a nice finish that didn't leave a lasting impression, but also wasn't bad either.  This wine was OK, and would drink it again but not recommend to buy, even at the sale price.
