2001 Pride Viognier - this was definitely over the hill, and I suspected as much before popping the cork. Nose was ripe, with toasty oak and honey. Color was a golden hue like honey, and the freshness that Viognier should have in its youth is long gone. Oh well...
2006 Taille aux Loups Montlouis-sur-Loire Sec "Rémus" - nose of lemon, toasty oak and minerals with a little ripe, sweet nose. Much better than the Pride Viognier but a very different wine from the one I tasted back in 2008.
