- This expressive, barrel-fermented Viognier seduces you with its beautiful honeysuckle, orange blossom perfume, and textured apricot, kiwi, and pineapple palate. It is a lifted, poised, and elegant Viognier. Viognier is an aromatic and generous varietal. It benefitted from barrel maturation and lees contact, creating a fuller mouthfeel and increased texture, which is beautifully balanced by the firm backbone of acidity.
The grapes were picked and the whole bunch pressed, slowly extracting the juice at 550 litres per tonne. The juice was settled for 48 hours and then racked into a combination of seasoned 225-litre Burgundian barrels, which matured for 10 months. 10% of the production was fermented and grown in a 600-litre egg-shaped tank, retaining the purity of the fruit. Balance is the key to this wine. Viognier is an aromatic and generous varietal.

| Winery | Californian Samantha O'Keefe has found paradise and the perfect terroir. Tucked into the foothills of a dramatic mountain range at the bottom of Africa, Lismore Estate Vineyards was born alongside her nascent family. A passionate vision, combined with vines planted at 300 metres, which are chilled by winter snow and nourished by the African summer sun, produces classic, cool-climate wines that are rich, complex, and lovingly hand-crafted. |
