Wine Spectator:  Rated as Very good: a wine with special qualities. "Fresh and juicy, delivering an exuberant mouthful of lemon peel-accented pear, almond and apricot flavors that linger beautifully. Drink now through 2013." Jul 2011

Winery:  "A bright yellow straw in colour, the Yalumba Y Series Viognier 2010 exhibits an alluring mix of honeysuckle, candied ginger and glacé pineapple aromas, which are typical of this exotic variety. In the mouth the palate has flavours of fresh pineapple and dried figs. It is finely balanced with silky texture from wild fermentation and lees aging. A wine of poise, which is delicious with zucchini flowers stuffed with a goat’s cheese, pine nut and baby spinach mousse. Suitable for vegans and vegetarians."

Wired For Wine:   We love nothing better than to start our Wednesdays with a terrifically priced Best Value!  The Yalumba Y Series Viognier is a favorite summer sipper at a luxuriously gentle price point...  Fill your glasses and enjoy them with shooters of velvety shrimp bisque topped with a tiny dot of creme fraiche.  The lovely assortment of fresh, tasty fruit, whisper of citrus and nut, and class act balance make this Yalumba the ideal choice with shellfish, fish, chicken curries and so much more.  If you're in the mood to splurge, we highly recommend lobster with a coconut-curry sauce over jasmine rice.  Grilled mustard chicken over a creamy polenta won't disappoint either.  If you prefer to highlight the fruit in this Y Series, then roast pork loin with poached plums is what you need.  Be sure you've got another bottle or two on hand, and serve it up with a French Livarot cheese.  Sprinkle some toasted walnuts on the cheese plate, and your work here will be done.  Who's hungry??!
