Not normally a fan of Viognier but the Marsanne complements this with some beautiful citrus character

Hermit Crab. The nose is that classic floral Viognier fragrance. The marsanne rounds it out with Pineapple and tangerine/lime and a little caramel. Bit of herb-grass at the back. Nice overall and good complexity for a light white blend.

A crisp, fresh and citrusy Viognier. Perfect with a crusty bruschetta.
