The Ojai Wine Company 2013 Viognier/Matthiason/Ravines

Very nice! Not cloying at all. Instead, quite savory and lithe, while still retaining some rich Viognier character.

Also: 2013 Matthiason "Linda Vista" Chardonnay. Wow. This was a Chardonnay I could drink! Jeff at Vini agreed. Extremely mineral-driven, almost ferrous. Saavory, bright, zingy acidity. Still some round Chardonnay fruit. A very nice food wine!

Finally: Ravines 2013 Finger Lakes Dry Riesling. This was almos pungeant in its petrol-ly riesling character. Almost challenging on the palate, but I still was quite impressed.
