Richer, with lower acidity than we see in BC but this is an Aussie cracker after all. Thnx to @barossasaint and @Yalumba's commitment to the reintroduction of #Viognier.

More oak than expected, rich golden fruit, subtle floral notes.

Deep gold with greenish highlights. Nose and palate of dried flowers and lychee with a white pepper finish. Medium full mouthfeel with surprisingly mouthwatering acidity. A very nice and uncommon representation of the varietal.

16/20 (90/100)

Цвет золотистый. Аромат интенсивный, с хорошими фруктами, персик, личи, цветочные и копченые тона. Много бочки но не излишне. Тело очень плотное, вкус цветочный, пряно-мнеральный. Мощно, но симпатично.

#2 in our Viognier study. Seemed oaky at first, but surprisingly good. Medium body, good acidity.

Oddball for a Viognier as it’s not floral like most I’ve had and it kinda smalls snd tastes like a classic cigar whisky club. Sugars seem a little off as in too dry.
