Description

This stunning and unusual white wine is a blend of 60 percent Tokay, 20 percent Viognier, 10 percent Pinot Gris and 10 percent Chardonnay, grown at over 1,100 metres’ altitude high up in the Andes. Only 3,000 bottles were made of this wine, so we would recommend trying a bottle while you can – maybe with a rich cheese soufflé or a chicken stroganoff?

The nose is aromatic and complex with the peach aroma of Viognier combining with fresh notes of gooseberries. The palate is broad and textured with a touch of sweet, ripe nectarine fruit counterbalanced by a wonderful saline element that brings incredible minerality to the wine. The finish is long and pure and seriously impressive.
