Marisco Craft Series ‘The Exemplar’ Viognier 2016, Marlborough

Written by Sep 3, 2024The Shout NZ

A complex and intriguing bouquet, a wine with development and purity of fruit, tension, and poise. As the wine opens up in the glass, the complexity builds with aromas of soil and lees, a fine tension from phenolics, and an acid line that holds these elements in place.
