Yalumba has been a longtime champion of Viognier Down Under. Unfortunately, 2020 was a difficult vintage and this bottling, while pleasant, falls somewhat short. There are hefty helpings of the variety's typical ripe-peach and white-floral notes, along with lychees, on the nose. The palate is creamy but with enough acidity to keep it fresh. But there's a slight chemical feel to the finish and a warmth from the 14% alcohol.
