Production
From Paarl vineyards grown on sandy loams, where timing of harvest is crucial to the varietal balance of aromatics, generosity of palate and freshness. Kleine Oranjerie Viognier does exactly that and is a hugely welcome, judiciously finessed addition to our South African portfolio.
Tasting notes
A classic varietal nose of jasmine, white peach and fruit blossom, with a hint of white pepper. The palate is ripe and full-flavoured with exotic, tropical fruit flavours balanced offset by bright, zingy acidity leading to a gingery, textural finish.
Food match
Thai green curry, Cape Malay curries, goats cheese and roast veg.
