Food Matching Note:
Can stand up to some seriously rich, spicy or full flavoured foods due to its concentration of fruit and alcohol. Try it with tiger prawn tempura and sweet chilli dipping sauce, honey and mango baked chicken fillet or crispy duck and pancakes.
Tasting Note:
This exotic, sumptuously rich wine is packed with aromas of ripe tropical fruit and flowers. It is full bodied, dripping with juicy nectarine, melon and papaya flavours, finishing rounded and succulent.
Vinification Note:
Sourced from selected small vineyard sites within the MontGras estate in the Colchagua valley, which have been purposely planted with Viognier due to their elevation, aspect and soil types. The grapes are left on the vine until they are super ripe and hand harvested. The whole bunches are de-stemmed and crushed into temperature controlled steel tanks where fermentation is started with selected yeast cultures. Fermentation is finished in barrel, mostly old French barrique, and the wine is bottled after fining and cold stabilisation at MontGras' dedicated bottling plant.
