Grande Provence Chenin Blanc / Viognier 2010

The Viognier / Chenin Blanc blend has an elegant nose showing peach, spice and yeasty notes. The palate is full bodied with layers of flavour, including dried apricot and cream. A long, dry finish rounds off this perfectly balanced blend.

This wine can be enjoyed with Grilled Quail smothered in candied walnuts and grilled pear with a honey glaze sauce. This wine could also be paired with Roasted Pork Belly or creamy Chicken a la King.
