What we're drinking

Oak Grove Vineyards (Lodi Sacramento Delta, California) Viognier, 2003.

We sampled this after it was brought to us by a friend, (you know who you are). We were pleasantly surprised by this white wine. Neither of us had heard of Viognier variety before so it was something new.

It shared many features of a light-bodied Chardonnay but had more of a flowery, perfume-like aroma. Taste was crisp and semi-dry with a sour finish.

No, I'm not trying to look pretentious.
