These hand picked grapes were whole-bunch pressed directly to barrels, and the juice handled with passive oxidation. The wine was fermented in mostly mature French oak barriques, by a population of naturally occurring and differing species of yeast indigenous to the environment of the vineyard. In these 'wild' or 'feral' ferments each yeast played a small and subtly different part in the development of the wine, creating layers of richness, complexity fine textures and flavours. After fermentation the wine was aged on lees with regular batonnage for ten months to further heighten the palate weight and increase the complexity and flavour generosity. At blending only the finest barrels were chosen.
The season created a wine with both finesse and opulence, with layers of complexity and lusciousness. On the nose the aroma is intense with white peaches, apricots and ginger. The palate is lifted with ginger spice, layered mineral texture and complex apricots along with white stone fruit flavours. The trademark Viognier lusciousness of the palate is clearly evident in this wine which is unctuous and complex while at the same time showing restraint that should ensure good cellaring for at least 3-4 years.

The Virgilus Viognier was barrel-fermented using indigenous yeasts and aged in seasoned French oak for 10 months. Light gold in color, it exhibits an attractive nose of white peach, apricot, orange zest, and ginger. This leads to a full-bodied wine with a smooth, creamy texture, excellent depth and concentration, and a lengthy, fruit-filled finish. Drink this tasty effort over the next several years.
