A very expressive Viognier with typical apricot and peach flavours. Full bodied and delicately balanced with oak. The wine has an off dry level of residual sugar to compliment thefull body, which follows through onto the palate.
Fantastic food wine complimenting a wide variety of spicy Thai/ Asian / curry dishes. Also goes well with cheese dishes,pasta and richer seafood. Definitely a conversation wine! The grapes were crushed in February and the juice was settled in stainless steel tanks. Fermentation took place in 225 l newFrench and Hungarian oak barrels, as well as in stainless steel tanks. Post fermentation, the wine was aged on the lees for a few months in 225 l oak barrels.
