WINEMAKING

Each year we take a parcel of Viognier from a south-facing vineyard in the Gomersal sub-region. The red iron ridge soils are harsh and the area is dry so we pick it early to preserve the natural acidity. Cold fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging ‘surly’ (on lees) in French oak barrels, we then bottle the wine unfiltered and release it almost immediately.

SENSORY

Light and cloudy in color with enticing aromas of tropical and stone fruit. Flavors of nectarine, passion fruit, and lychee dominate with subtle hints of spice from partial oak maturation.

FOOD PAIRING

The richness of this wine works well with richer proteins and a poached salmon dish always pairs perfectly with Barossa Viognier. Given the subtle alcohol content, this can also work well to combat the spice of Indian foods such as a warm chicken curry.
