I have to admit, this may be the only Viognier I've ever tasted. Or remember tasting. Kristen's Cuvee became a cornerstone for the "summer of unusual whites" 2011. With Rock Wall's tasting deck open looking to San Francisco (and a runway-converted-to-least-tern-bird-sanctuary) it winefectas perfectly with sunshine and a good card game.

Sometimes it tastes sweeter than other days so if you have an aversion, beware.
