Wine Review Bright light straw in color with some green hues, this wine has a lush ripe tropical fruit aroma. This is a fuller bodied white, which fills the mouth with heady flavors of apricot, peach and citrus.  Angove Nine Vines Viognier is perfect for today's relaxed life-style and is the ideal accompaniment to grilled prawns with chili and garlic or roast pork.


My Review: Definitely fuller than most whites I’m used to. Smell: oaky, pineapple, apples, apricots and mangos, a little honey, and as always citrus. Taste: Mango and apricot, a little minty, a little tobacco, and kiwi or tangerine or something like that, and overall citrusy. I liked this wine and ended up getting a bottle!
