Backsberg Babylonstoren Paarl Viognier 2006 84 pt

Backsberg Babylonstoren Paarl Viognier 2006 84 point

Clear, day bright, pale gold with medium plus concentration and high viscosity, no evidence of gas or sediment.

Clean, medium intensity with baked / grilled stone fruit and terpenes note, slightly atypical of a Viognier, juicy and mouth filling, richly textured,boosted by some Residual Sugar, complex and layered, very well made, over deliver on palate, nutty complexity, however slight touch of almond bitterness/phenolic distract, now until 2015
