Viognier

Viognier

Viognier is an exquisite variety of white wine grape of French origin. It was nearly extinct by 1965 when only around eight acres were left in the Rhone region of France, predominantly located in the Northern part of this region. However, following its revival and recognition, this grape now enjoys extensive global cultivation.

Characterised by its deep yellow colour and high alcohol content that ranges between 13.5% and 15%, Viognier wine is compelling due to its unique characteristics. It is especially appreciated for its intense, highly aromatic floral bouquet that exudes an enticing perfume of sweet violets, apricots, peaches and honey blossom. On the palate, expressions of stone fruit, pear, ginger and slightest touch of creaminess are standard, accompanied by a rich and textural mouthfeel. However, despite its fuller body and opulent flavours, the grape has a relatively low acidity, adding a distinct roundness to the finish.

Cultivation of Viognier grapes demands utmost care, as they tend to blossom early and are vulnerable to mildew. Notoriously difficult to grow, these grapes require plenty of sunshine and well-drained soil to mature properly. They are also harvested late in the season to develop their heady aromatics and luscious flavours. Therefore, they tend to thrive in warmer climates like Australia, California, the southern parts of France, and South Africa.

Perfectly paired with aromatic Asian cuisine or rich seafood dishes like shellfish and lobster, Viognier wine is also delicious with dishes featuring exotic spices and herbs as it beautifully accentuates the complex flavours within these meals. Whether you prefer your wine as an aperitif or to accompany a flavorful dish, the luscious Viognier grape stands out as a delightful choice for those who appreciate a distinctive taste.
