Description
Most loved for its perfumed aromas, the De Grendel Viognier ranges from tangerine, mango, ripe peach and honeysuckle on the nose to creamier flavours of vanilla with spices of nutmeg and clove due to oak ageing.
Pale lemon colour with a translucent rim, reflecting a clear and bright wine. The nose is a rich and exotic bouquet of ripe yellow stone fruits, gardenia flowers and honeydew with a drop of honeycombe and clove. On the palate the wine surprises with a fresh but mediumbodied mouthfill and medium-plus acidity. A slight hint of gentle oak can be detected on the aftertaste. On first palate entry the wine is light and spritzy, but surprisingly broad with a slight oiliness on the mid-palate.
Ideal for spicy curries with poppadums, naan bread and sambals or fruity tagines. It matches well with soft and semi-soft cheesed such as chevre, gouda and brie. Spicy butternut squash soup and honeyglazed root vegetables will complement the wines aromatics.
