Like the Sterling Viognier recently tasted, this wine, from the Winery Lake Vineyard in Carneros, hides its high alcohol gracefully. Not a particulaly powerful wine, but well-balanced and harmonious. The nose has some soft, buttery white fruits and apple aromas; the flavors are light- to medium-bodied, with attractive spice and caramel notes. - HK 2002-11-28
