Elgee Park Late Harvest Viognier 2019
The Elgee Park viognier is from one of the oldest plantings in Australia. Light straw in colour with aromas of stewed apricots and sweet marmalade, folds into an equally fruity palate that is glossy with stonefruit. Rich, without being over – sweet, the gentle natural acidity on the finish ensures its versatility as a beautiful ‘food’ wine.

VINTAGE
After a mild and relatively dry winter, resulted in flowering with mostly good set. The ripening period during summer was relatively warm, which saw harvest commence up to 7 days earlier than long term averages. Yields were high with good acidity retention and excellent, balanced flavours.
