West Bend Vineyards Viognier 2006

As one would expect from a Viognier, the bouquet of this one is perfumy and floral. The mouthfeel is rich and almost oily, and the flavors are figs and apricots with a wee bit of oak. This is a nice wine.

Hanover Park Viognier 2006

This wine has a sweet bouquet that reminded me of apricots and cinnamon. The palate is clean, with some nice acidity and a brief finish. I liked it, and so did the two locals who came in and enjoyed a bottle at the table in the tasting room.

RayLen Viognier 2004

The bouquet has a floral, vanilla quality. The mouthfeel is honeyish and almost oily, and there is a bit of an herbal note. I could imagine drinking this with a pile of steamed mussels.
