Idiom Viognier 2022
R250.00
A fresh, textured and complex barrel-fermented Viognier to savour. Initial top notes of yellow citrus fruits develop into a delicate mélange of shortbread, peach and chamomile aromas on the nose. A creamy mid-palate with layers of nougat and orange blossom.
Serve chilled and enjoy the evolution of flavours in the glass. The ultimate pairing wine with shellfish, seafood, veal, pork, roast chicken or curried Malay dishes.
