Description
Up there with the best Australian Viognier that we have seen! Ginger spice with the merest hint of apricot, perfectly balanced and long, long, long finish.
‘Nick Farr is clearly the best maker of this variety in Australia.’ Huon Hooke
From the winery … “A lovely perfumed, yet subtle expression of viognier. Fresh peach and apricot flavours as a young wine, which we believe will intensify over time. The palate is restrained, luscious and shows a ginger-flavoured freshness with underlying power and lingering aftertaste. This wine benefits beautifully from 12 months of bottle ageing, as the acid softens.”
92 Points – Campbell Mattinson, THE WINE FRONT ‘It spends time in wood but it doesn’t necessarily taste of it. Oak has added texture rather than flavour. Cliched words but not a cliched result. It pulses with flavours of nectarine, apple, ginger and straw, its personality both elegant and measured. Indeed for all its softness you’d almost call it crisp. Certainly not a hedonistic expression of the variety. Final flourish to the finish. ‘
