Our Viognier is a great food wine that will pair well with rich pasta, chicken and pork dishes. 

Viognier is quite unique with berries that shrivel towards full ripeness. Sampling and tasting the fruit during ripening is of utmost importance to end up with a balance between fruit, alcohol and structure.

The result is a wine with rich, intense aromas and tastes of white flowers, ripe fleshy peaches, apricots and desiccated pineapple followed through on the palate with an undertow of soft, buttery oak barrel flavours.

Crisp, fresh and ready to drink now, but would become slightly richer and creamier with up to 3 years of bottle maturation.

Enjoy with: Sweet and Sour Pork, Biryani

Tasting Notes: Nutmeg, Apricots, Peaches

  • Tasting Notes

    The bouquet presents a heady and aromatic nose. This is followed by a medium-bodied palate of nutmeg, ripe apricots, yellow cling peaches, star jasmine and violets. Sensual and seductive, the complexity given by the subtle oak fermentation underpins its flamboyance.

  • Food Complements

    Sweet and sour pork with noodles, grilled peach and chicken skewers with a peanut satay, biryani, and pilaf.

  • Vintage

    The season presented a cold winter and a cold spring with good rainfall and a very moderate growing period during summer. This resulted in a later-than-usual harvest and grapes were harvested 14 days later compared to 2020.
