2006 Viewpointe Ideal Pointe
Chardonnay - Barrel Fermented VQA
|
NOTE BY ZOLTAN SZABO:
A full and rich white, Burgundian – style, with quince,
yellow plums, lemon mousse, vanilla, oak spice bouquet and
palate; with spicy cedar, pineapple finish; and it’s just great
already, although I am sensing that it’s not even fully
integrated yet, and can just benefit from further aging.
4 + stars out of 5. |

2002 Viewpointe Focal Pointe
Cabernet Franc VQA
|
NOTE BY ZOLTAN SZABO:
Comes from a “reserve year”
as the lady behind the tasting bar explains. Dehydrated
black fruit, tar and dried flower petals, little leather
and some nutmeg aromatics here. Medium plus bodied and
dry with soft, chalky tannins. I like it despite the
very low amounts of delicious bret. Drink now. – 4 stars
out of 5. |

also. Fresh and juicy with a pretty soft texture and
spicy finish. |

2005 Viewpointe Balance Pointe
Cabernet Merlot VQA
|
NOTE BY ZOLTAN SZABO:
Has a small amount of Petit Verdot blended in it to add
more acidity and colour. Aromas of raspberries, cranberries,
blueberries, deep spice, fermented tobacco and orange rind.
Medium to full bodied, still very youthful and fresh, with lots
of ripe fruit and smooth, sweet tannins. The long finish sports
interesting herbal flavour notes. And it’s just getting
released, so hurry up and call the winery, you won’t regret.
Perfect with beef stroganoff. -
