Villa Maria Cellar Selection Hawkes Bay Viognier 2018
A true expression of the variety
A true expression of the variety
Description
True to its variety this wine has exotic aromatics, featuring honeysuckle, apricot, almond and nutmeg spice. The palate is full-bodied and textured, unfolding layers of fruit and complexing spice notes.
The 2018 Hawkes Bay Summer surpassed 2017 as the warmest for over 10 years on record and was vital for obtaining ripe flavours in Viognier. Rainfall throughout the harvest window of March resulted in pressure to fruit health placing significant emphasis on pick dates and an early and compressed white harvest commenced.
Food Pairing: Delicious with a wide range of dishes including white meats, terrines, Turkish, Moroccan and Asian influenced cuisines.
