2007 Shelmerdine Viognier

Bright straw colour with pale straw hue. Delicate tropical fruit top note, followed by apricot and spice. The palate is slightly broad, but acceptable as this Viognier has been made in the fuller style and shows strong varietal character. The palate displays the classic ‘tropical fruit on the turn’ flavour profile, with layers of mango, guava, orange and tropical fruits. Very spicy back palate. Long tropical fruit aftertaste.
