Viognier’s exotic opulence produces a wine of seductive and perfumed pleasure. Intense apricot, mango and orange blossom aromas are balanced by hints of clove, cinnamon and nutmeg, as well as nutty notes suggestive of fresh baklava. Balancing that exuberance with an equal display of focus and restraint, the palate opens with richness and spicy generosity, the apricot fruit sitting beautifully within a textured, gently structured framework. There’s an almost viscous texture that gives length, volume and finesse to the palate. Restrained yet mouthfilling, the wine is a natural complement to seafood and white meats and also pairs beautifully with a range of spicy flavours.
Drink young. - Sandra de Pury
Luscious ripe fruit, not too much, leads with stone fruit, apricots and kernels, glace pineapple, all drizzled with ginger spiced cream. Soft, pleasing and holds its own..
