Sam Kim - Wine Orbit
This is immediately enticing on the nose, showing dried apricot, orange marmalade, honey and fragrant spice aromas. The palate is filled with complex flavours with good sweetness, but not cloying, well balanced by bright acidity. Beautifully expressed with a lengthy, delicious finish.

Marcus Ellis - Halliday Wine Companion
Late-harvest viognier from the estate vineyard pressed to oak, old and new, to ferment, then transferred to tank to stop the ferment with about 5 baume of sugar left, where it remained on gross less for six months. Sticky, yes, but not cloyingly so, with a burst of acidity in support of the luscious profile of oozingly ripe apricot, honeyed lemon tea and orange blossom water. It’d be apt with fruit-based desserts, but I fancy this is an even better foil for dolce gorgonzola with new-season walnuts. 500ml.
