Score 88/100 · Drink 2014-2017, Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate, Aug 2014
The 2012 Viognier has a creamy, medium-bodied profile to go with classic stone fruits, pear, citrus blossom and white flower-like aromas and flavors. Aged on lees for 11 months in neutral French oak, it picks up a nice salty minerality with time in the glass, and will continue to drink nicely for 2-3 years. These solid efforts are made by Australian-born Harry Waye, who has been at this estate since 2007. His 2011s are made in a more restrained, elegant style that comes up a little short on depth when compared to past vintages. Tel. (805) 686-2345; www.demetriaestate.com
