Tasting Angove Nine Vines Viognier


• Name: Angove Nine Vines Viognier
• Variety: Viognier
• Region: South Australia 
• Country: Australia
• Year: 2009
• Price: $7.95
• 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: This white wine has a dark and golden color. It smelled very acidic, and a little fruity. Overall, I did not think this wine was well balanced. Beside from the hot finish and the acidity, I did not experience much fruit flavors. 
• I had this wine at a wine tasting.
