Yalumba Organic Viognier 2012


Yalumba Organic Viognier 2012

 

This ticks a lot of boxes and is cheap as chips for the quality level. It doesn’t have textural elements like the Virgilius but it doesn’t come with the same price tag as well.  It isn’t fully in your face but it is definitely a viognier with flavours of apricot skin, orange blossom and caramel. On the palate these moments are infused with roasted Indian spices on a medium bodied frame which finishes with nice acidity and a touch of honeysuckle. There is a hint of phenolics which makes the palate more interesting to taste. This would be great with a Moroccan dish on a warm afternoon under the trees. Love it!
