Bin Number: 036836
More than 5 cases / 60 bottles in stock

An irresistible white with a lifted spice and lychee character and a full bodied texture. Winemaker Louisa Rose is a whizz with Viognier, this is a bit of a Rhône lookalike. It’s an intensely satisfying wine with rich, peach and nectarine flavours and a wonderful accompaniment to Asian stir-fries.

In the press:

"Fulsome, perfumed white oozing plump peach and apricot, with a honeyed hint yet dry, fresh finish. Pair this with creamy chicken dishes for a sensuous match,"Susy Atkins, The Sunday Telegraph, 15 November 2009 (2008 vintage)

    "From Australia's pioneer of the Condrieu grape. Excellent value. Full, aromatic but not overblown." Jancis Robinson, www.jancisrobinson.com, 28 November 2009
    "Viognier can be something of an aquired taste - real one-glass wine territory - but not when it's as good as this ripe, creamy, apricot-scented example from Down Under," Tim Atkin, The Observer, 6 December 2009 (2008 vintage)
