The 2009 Viognier "Cuvee Larsinos" is one of two Viogniers from Skouras reviewed this issue. They come from different regions and receive different oak treatment (this receiving less oak). Named after Skouras' cousins, who own the vineyard, this comes screwcapped, from the Korinthia region and sourced from 24-year-old vines. It was fermented in 30% new oak. The oak is there, but this drinks quite nicely, shows good acidity and balance. It is a very pleasing wine overall. The acidity and fruit hold their own nicely here. This fresh and nicely balanced wine is a pleasure to drink, but it should be drunk young for best results. It is at peak now. Drink now-2013. Importer: Diamond Importers, Chicago, IL; tel.

This Viognier is a combination of peach and honeyed spice on the nose and palate. Refreshing but with a round, fragrant curve, the wine has a velvety texture and finishes with a spin of peach and tropical fruit.——S.K.(6/1/2011)—— 87
