Pronounced: Vee-on-ee-ay
Viognier produces a wine that should be drunk young, while its perfume is at its most heady and before the wines slightly low acidity fades. Its generous character and youthful softness make it an ideal wine where strong wine character, and immediacy of drinking is paramount. An emerging style in Australia is the blending of Shiraz and Viognier to add fullness and structure to the middle palate.
