Yalumba, the pioneer of Viognier in Australia, has devoted 20 years to the growing and making of this rare and exotic Rhone variety. On the nose the aroma is always intense with white peaches, apricots and ginger. The palate is lifted with ginger spice, layered mineral texture and complex apricots along with white stone fruit flavours. The trademark Viognier lusciousness of the palate is clearly evident in vintages of this wine which is unctuous and complex. We are delighted to offer this aged example.
At its best with food, The Virgilius complements a wide range of flavors, particularly dishes with spice and richness.
