| NOTES: |
This Viognier is made from a select parcel of
fruit from our Pemberton vineyard. Climatic
conditions this vintage meant the Viognier
grapes achieved optimum ripeness and
retained great varietal characters.
This wine has been styled to emphasise the
subtle yet distinctive characters of viognier.
French oak and extended lees contact play a
supporting role, adding complexity and length. |
| COLOUR: |
Straw. |
| NOSE: |
Aromas of apricot, peach, rose petal, spice and
a hint of oak. |
| PALATE: |
The palate is full of ripe, juicy berry fruits balanced by fine tannins and well-integrated barrel oak. |
| CUISINE: |
Viognier is well suited to spicy
dishes, such as Thai-style curries and
stir-fry’s made with coconut milk.
Also fruit salsas, atop grilled fish or
chicken, can be miraculously tasty
with Viognier. |
