Oxford Landing’s Viognier
I found the 2006 Oxford Landing, South Australia, Viognier, a pleasant summer surprise.
Aromas of musk, white flowers, and hints of apricot and peaches on the nose give way to a refreshing palate of crisp ripe pear and peaches with just enough acidity to balance the fruit.
I don’t know what the classic pairing would be but I suggest that you give this a try with Kelly’s peach-prosciutto salad for a great summer evenig meal.
Given the screwtop, this wine would work well for camping and picnics and as I write this I envision myself and Gloria in an Alpine meadow with good bread, a creamy cambozola cheese and no cares.
Enjoy.
