Winemaking

Our 2023 Metal Label Viognier heralds from the inland grape growing area of Riverina. After meticulous attention in the vineyard, fruit flavours were at an optimum and physiological ripeness was achieved, the parcel was harvested in the cool of the night during the month of February and delivered to the winery for processing. Fermentation was undertaken in stainless steel vats, using several yeast strains selected to elevate aromatics and promote mouthfeel. Upon completion, the parcels spent a short time on sur lie before blending, clarification, stabilisation and bottling.

Peak drinking

This wine has been lovingly made to enjoy now but will benefit
from careful short term cellaring.

Food pairing

Delightful as an aperitif, that also pairs wonderfully with Pad Thai or
grilled salmon with baby potatoes with dill cream.

Huon Hooke - The Real Review

87 Points

"Pale colour with a scented, talcum powder/muscat fragrance, reminiscent of gewrztraminer or muscat grapes. It's full and round on the palate, with a trace of firming tannin that extends the finish and adds some backbone. "
