Yalumba ‘Samuel’s Collection’ Eden Valley Viognier 2017
A slippery saline texture carries the ripe stonefruit and citrus characters with aplomb. In the mid-palate a gentle spice warms the taste experience with a delightful dash of white pepper in the finish rounds out a delicious taste experience.
Serve this with roast chicken, the richness of the wine will be balanced by the natural fats in the chicken while the white pepper notes in the wine will season the food.
Alternatively try it with anything spicy, the naturally sweet fruit flavours are the perfect foil to some chili heat.
