Exotically exuberant nose. Imagine opulent aromas of white flowers, violets, apricots and peaches, developing on each sip like a symphony building up to a finale. A bouquet that simply stops you in your tracks. The palate is pure, vibrant and unforgettable.
Gracious opulence with a luxurious dawn freshness. Rich and curvaceous across the tongue, yet still so elegant with a silky smooth lingering finish.
This wine is vegan-friendly.

The fruit was left on the skins for an extended time to extract the superb flavors. Then gently pressed and transferred in 500 liter French oak puncheons for a natural (wild yeast) fermentation until there was no sugar left. Its fine lees has been regularly stirred assisting to its remarkable silkiness, complexity and depth.
The wine had 18 month in the barrel and 10 month in the bottle to mature and flourish to a perfect drink enjoyment when released. No cold stabilization. Unfined and only lightly filtrated to retain the amazing aromas. Naturally beautiful…
Viognier is a fickly grape variety with unpredictable yields and should be picked only when fully ripe (Physiological ripeness). When picked too early, the grapes fail to develop the full extent of its stunning aromas. When picked too late or in too hot climates, the grape produces wine that is oily and lacks perfume.
Planted on our sandy soils, our Viognier ripens to perfection with a deep yellow color to produce wine with a strong perfume that are high in alcohol. The wonderfully ideal warm summer of 2018 together with our low yield philosophy produced perfect healthy and flavorful berries with a gentle perfume, ripened to perfection from the 22 year old vines

Hans Herzog has recently taken a more sustainable approach to their packaging and has removed the capsules from their bottles. As organic producers, they felt a little bit hypocritical using tin capsules, therefore made the decision to have them removed.
