Georgia’s Paddock Viognier

Planted in 1991 our Viognier was only ever produced as a single variety. Barrel fermented in minute quantities, this was very much a food pairing wine. 2014 was our last vintage of Viognier as we grafted over to Fiano and is now part of the Lo Stesso label.

Vintages

  • Time of release
    Fermented in new French barriques imparting an oaky background to the flavours of honey, caramelised honeycomb and some stone fruits, with a full, dry finish. Match to full-flavoured dishes. This is the final release; the vineyard has been grafted over to Fiano. 13.0% alc/vol

  • Time of release
    Honey, peach, apricot, stone fruits and more honey. Understated viscosity with a soft oaky palate and a citrus, light acid finish. Strong flavoured, to match with rich white meats and creamy sauces. 15.0% alc/vol

  • Time of release
    After the blockbuster of the 2009 first release, this wine is a more delicate expression of typical Viognier characteristics and is better-off for it – viscous mouthfeel, ripe apricot and peach stone-fruit aromas and flavours, great balance and length, perfect food wine and low in alcohol. 11.0% alc/vol

  • Time of release
    Our first release. Strong honey-suckle floral aromas with apricot, honey and ginger spice flavours. Partly fermented in Domenic Laurent’s ’magic’ barriques, the oak may initially appear overdone. A powerful viscous mouthfeel. 200 dozen. 15.0% alc/vol
