Description: | Pale Straw in colour and medium to full-bodied this Viognier has typical aromas of apricot and orange blossom, with just a hint of clean white smoke. The wine is both flavoursome and textural, the essence of fruit building and lingering on the palate. This fleshy wine is afforded an elegance thanks to bright acidity and a phenolic skeleton together balancing the residual sugar and creating a lingering finish. Try with a Moroccan dish of lamb shanks and dried apricots or as an aperitif with walnut crackers, a ripe blue cheese and quince paste. |
