Description
Millton wines are made biodynamically and organically, winemaker and founder James Millton acting as something of a mentor to other would-be naturalists in NZ winemaking. He describes his vineyard philosophy as not 'fighting dis-ease, but farming ease'... comparing spraying a vineyard to taking an aspirin every morning to ward off headaches. The original vineyard was planted in 1978 and in 1997 this vineyard was replanted with Viognier, amongst the first commercial plantings of this exotic variety in New Zealand.
Smells
Soft and nutty on the nose, with almond meal, classic canned apricot notes and blossom
Tastes
Full bodied and quite concentrated, there are layers of stone fruit, poached pears and lemon. A stunning Viognier, the layers of warm pastry, rich fruits and fine minerality with spicy edges make for a fulfilling and rich experience. Delicious drinking now and over the next 2-3 years, the perfect accompaniment to Pork belly with lashing of crackling….. yum.
We taste, rate & guarantee every wine we sell.
