2007 Cinquante-Cinq, Viognier, Languedoc
Color: Light straw color, limish-pear tinge.
Nose: Floral, sour apple, lemon, stone.
Taste: Sour fruits, stone, metallic flavors. "Green sour grapes" flavors.
Acidity: High
Density: Very-light.
Finish: Very short and pronounced.
Alcohol: 12.5%
Notes: Very light, earthy-metallic-sour mix wine that pairs well with food due to the acidity of the wine. Not exactly "flavorful" nor full-bodied but at the price point it's a "go." I only give
it a "go" because it would pair well with so much food.
