Les Acanthes Vin de Pays d'Oc Viognier 2008

Served With: Stroganoff

Five Things: straw, faint grapefruit, mineral, green buds, white pepper

COO: Languedoc Roussillon, France

Notes: I took a flyer on this pairing, hoping the acidity of the viognier would be up to the task of cutting through the mustard and cream sauce of the stroganoff. Alas, it was not to be. In tasting before the meal, the wine seemed a little flat and it didn't perk up against the sauce.

Rating: Good
