I love some Viogniers, mainly New World versions, but it seems that many of them, regardless of style, are just badly done. I even looked around to what other people said about this wine before I chimed in myself.

While this wine has both peach and white pepper flavors, and the smell of orange blossoms, the taste is unrefined and too 'hot;' is essentially tastes hot, which is not something that you want in a wine. Being that it's a white wine, I don't think that bottle aging will have any positive impacts on this one at all.

I am hesitant on trying other wines by this producer, but I still might just to make sure that they're just having a problem with this grape, as many other people also seem to be.
