MORE INFORMATION:
This wine is unique - the grapes are harvested together, pressed together and fermented together. Putting these cultivars together so early in the process allows more time for the aroma's to meet and marry, combining the cherry, strawberry and raspberry aromas of the Syrah with the intensity of peach and apricot flavours from the Viognier. The lovely salmon colour is a result of 4 hours of skin contact.
