Spice Route Viognier 2009

Aromas of peach and orange zest, with subtle marzipan and honeysuckle. Mouthfeel is rounded and rich, without being austere. The oak character is restrained, complementing rather than competing with the fruit. Peach flavours follow through from the nose, leading to a supple finish.
