Description
Creation Viognier 2020
Clear and shiny pale gold colour. Abundantly fruity yet refine bouquet of white peaches, ripe pear and honeysuckle florals. We think it tastes like peaches and cream ice cream! The smooth palate has a distinctive white peach and apricot flavour that mingles seamlessly with a rich and creamy mouthfeel, crisp minerality and bouncy acidity.
100% Viognier from a vineyard in the highly acclaimed Walker Bay wine region. Creation was the first in the Hemel-en-Aarde with a Viognier vineyard. The vines for grow in a cool, south-facing slope, which is ideal for the cultivation of Viognier. The vineyard has an altitude of 350 metres and rich clay and loam soil composition.
Fun Fact: The translation of Hemel-en-Aarde is ‘Heaven and Earth’ – and the name says it all!
After a manual harvest, fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks at 15°C without malolactic fermentation. The wine then matures on fine lees for 2–3 months before bottling.
We think you'll also love Yangarra Roussane 2017!
