Wine Style And Cultivars: 100% Viognier with excellent fruit expression and acidity.
Wine Tasting Notes: A light golden wine with intense aromas of tangerine and orange blossom that follow through with peaches to the palate offers additional spices and apricot along with good texture. A wine which shows restraint with a fresh entry leading into good weight on the mid-palate allowing it to linger longer.
Viticulture and Terroir: 100% Viognier from a north facing slope approximately 176m to 194m above sea level. The Viognier is harvested between 22-23.5° Balling
Vinification And Maturation: Grapes are sorted three times before they are left on the skins overnight to ensure good flavour extraction. Then the grapes were lightly pressed with a basket press to ensure just the right amount of phenolics are extracted. Extraction was at +-450 lit/ton. Juice is settled overnight, racked and fermented in stainless steel and 1 x 500L 1st fill, 1 x 500L 2nd fill, 1 x 500L 3rd fill. French oak barrels (12.5%) and 87.5% in Stainless steel. The wine is left on lees for 4 months.
