Viognier

Images for Viognier

Viognier is a white grape variety known for producing aromatic and full-bodied wines with a rich and exotic character. Originally from the Rhone Valley in France, Viognier is now grown in various wine regions around the world, including Australia, California, and South Africa.

Viognier typically has a fragrant bouquet of floral and fruit aromas, such as orange blossom, honeysuckle, apricot, and peach, with some varieties displaying spicy and herbal notes.

On the palate, Viognier can have a range of flavours, from ripe tropical fruits to stone fruits, such as peach and apricot, with a hint of minerality and a creamy, full-bodied texture.


Viognier wines can be enjoyed young, displaying bright acidity and a refreshing character, or aged for a few years, developing a richer, more complex flavour profile. Viognier pairs well with a variety of foods, including spicy Asian cuisine, grilled seafood, and creamy pasta dishes.
