2022 The Foundry Viognier
£18.00
Viognier from a vineyard just 6 km from False Bay so it gets cool Atlantic Ocean winds which, winemaker Chris Williams says, keeps the wine restrained. Fermentation in old barrels.
“Cobnuts and rhubarb-lime candy. Daphne flowers and then a little note of Darjeeling tea. Pineapple. So much here! Flavours keep tripping over each other. Straw on the end. Bauble-shiny acidity. So, so different from bog-standard Viognier. This could convince me that all Viognier should be grown within reach of cold ocean winds. GV”

Product Description
Founded in 2001 by Chris Williams and friend James Reid with a tiny budget The Foundry has grown into a tour de force of the South African wine scene.
The Viognier is grown on a single vineyard, South Westerly slope about 6 km from False Bay which enjoys cool maritime on shore breezes from the Atlantic. The soils are granite-clay loams which restrict yield and allow for retention of acidity and varietal aroma.
