This Viognier is pristine with vibrant fruit characters and more than a whisper of elegance and sophistication. Pear, apricot and ginger notes with some complex barrel ferment characters on the nose. A balanced palate carrying classic Viognier richness without being heavy or cloying.
Past Accolades and Awards:
91 - Campbell Mattinson, Wine Front "Straw-yellow in colour. Plenty of punch, plenty of spice. Viognier a’go’go. Turns fine and more towards elegance on the finish but the power and personality of the palate does not fade quickly."
2015 Vintage: 95 Points - James Halliday, Wine Front "Complex and inviting; lime, honeysuckle, ginger and spice lead to a powerful and intensely concentrated palate. Viognier is a difficult variety to balance the power and retain the delicacy, which Tim Kirk has done admirably."
