Yalumba The Virgilius Eden Valley Viognier

Viognier 2002

• Vintage quality: A text book vintage for white wines in Eden Valley. Mild and dry over the long even ripening period resulted was healthy vines that produced grapes with concentrated flavour accumulation, and excellent quality
• Cellar guide: Good cellaring for 3-4 Years
• Last tasted: May 2003, Louisa Rose, Winemaker
• Notes: Pale gold in colour with green highlights, Yalumba The Virgilius 2002 offers intense aromas of rose water, white peaches and apricots, with slight musk nuances. Lifted ginger spice is layered on the palate with a mineral texture and complex white stone fruit flavours. The trademark Viognier lusciousness is clearly evident, giving complexity whilst showing restraint, ensuring good cellaring for at least 3-4 years. This wine is at its best with food and complements a wide range of flavours. Awards and Accolades: 1 Commendation, 2 Gold
