Millton Riverpoint Vineyard Viognier 750mL

Millton Riverpoint Vineyard Viognier stands as a testament to Millton Vineyards' dedication to organic and biodynamic farming practices in the Gisborne region of New Zealand. Crafted exclusively from Viognier grapes sourced from the estate's Riverpoint Vineyard, this wine captures the essence of the terroir and showcases the varietal's unique characteristics. The Viognier grapes are carefully hand-harvested at optimal ripeness to preserve their delicate flavors and aromas. Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes undergo gentle pressing, and the juice is fermented using indigenous yeasts to capture the true expression of the vineyard. In the glass, Millton Riverpoint Vineyard Viognier reveals a pale straw color with golden hues, offering an enticing bouquet of floral notes, including jasmine, orange blossom, and honeysuckle, alongside ripe peach, apricot, and tropical fruit aromas. These fragrances lead into a palate that is rich, textured, and luscious, with flavors of stone fruits, citrus zest, and subtle spice. The wine's vibrant acidity provides freshness and balance, while its supple mouthfeel and creamy texture add depth and complexity. A touch of oak aging contributes subtle notes of vanilla and toast, enhancing the wine's structure and length on the finish. Millton Riverpoint Vineyard Viognier is a versatile wine that pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, from seafood and poultry to creamy pastas and spicy Asian cuisine. Whether enjoyed on its own or as part of a meal, it offers a captivating sensory experience that reflects the unique character of the Riverpoint Vineyard and the expertise of Millton Vineyards in crafting exceptional Viognier wines.
