Winemaker, Louisa Rose uses natural indigenous yeasts to ferment her Viognier's, leaving more than half the wine in barrel on lees for up to ten months with regular stiring and topping. Bright straw colour with pale green hue. Top note of dried apricot, followed by tropical fruit and spice, showing good varietal character. The palate has good weight and mouthfeel with dominant spicy character. On the palate strong dried apricot flavours which runs well into the aftertaste. Clean finish with spiciness persisting.
