Designed for early consumption this is a youthful, fresh, lean take on Viognier from Clonakilla.Picked early, tank fermented and bottled early, the Nouveau is a more restrained new kid on the block than its fuller-bodied older sibling.
Straw green colour in the glass with floral aromas, melon, pine and herbal fragrances.
There is both fruit and savoury flavours on the palate. Light apricot, fresh green apple and cinnamon. Crisp in texture with a stoney and zippy acidity running.through the mid-palate. Soft acid, dry, savoury finish.
The 2016 has been released so if finding the 2015 has been difficult, do yourself a favour.
