The 2011 Viognier Second Coming is an exceptionally beautiful, polished wine loaded with tons of varietal nuance. White flowers, jasmine, lychee, spices and citrus are all layered into the bright, perfumed finish. This is another terrific showing from Clendenen Family Vineyards. -- Antonio Galloni

Green-tinged gold. A highly perfumed bouquet evokes ripe peach, orange, honey and white flowers, with a slow-building vanilla nuance. Pliant and expansive, offering juicy, spice-accented citrus and pit fruit nectar flavors and a touch of bitter quinine. Finishes sappy and long, with lingering floral, spice and honey qualities. -- Josh Raynolds
