Yalumba Organic Viognier
Wine Description
Located on the Murray River at Loxton, the Barich family property features a beautiful organic vineyard that produces wonderful Viognier. Since the 2011 vintage these grapes have been complemented by the Bassham family’s vineyard in Barmera. Meticulous hand detailed work in both vineyards ensures the grapes are in perfect condition when they are picked.
Made with organic South Australian grapes, this wine showcases the true varietal flavors and unique sites around South Australia in which the fruit grown. No oak is used and the wine goes through natural wild fermentation as well as wild malolactic fermentation. Very few additions are made to the wine – only what’s required to preserve the natural flavors.
