2016 Rock of Wisdom Barossa Valley Shiraz Viognier

‘Shiraz viognier is all about bringing sexy back’, 7% viognier skins added during fermentation, matured for 12 months in used French oak. 7% viognier is a substantial addition, and could easily have been too much, but the shiraz hasn’t succumbed.

It’s a rich tapestry with velvet cushions, mouthfilling, but with the balance to develop and shed some of its puppy fat in so doing. 14.4% alc.
