Product information "Babylonstoren Viognier 2020"
The Babylonstoren Viognier is a real speciality - this grape is rarely processed alone. The bouquet is floral accentuated and offers layers of fresh pear and dried apricots. On the palate, it is creamy and round with slight hints of wood and a splash of lime on the finish. After a seven-month stay in French oak barrels, it achieves a perfect balance of floral bouquet, creamy round palate and fresh finish.

70% of the wine underwent a cold fermentation in steel tanks, while 30% of the wine fermented for 6 months in second and third filled French oak barrels before both components were combined and bottled.
