Domaine de Montine - Viognier

Rhone, France
2 x 75cl Bottles
This is the only white in the case. It was John Wilson of The Irish Times who said recently that there are some white wines that should be enjoyed as though they are reds. He meant that they can be served at almost room temperature and that they can be sipped so that their length can be savoured and enjoyed, as opposed to them being cold refreshing vibrant wines full of acidity. This is honeyed, with floral aromas, honeyblossom and white pepper. a long length and a flavoursome finish.
Domaine La Font de Notre Dame Lirac

Lirac is quite a special Cru. In general, the wines are softer than its peers. Here, it’s all about the finesse and the fruit of Grenache.
Deep crimson in colour, with notes of strawberries and blackberries. On the palate, the wine has a velvety mouthfeel and fresh acidity. Redcurrant flavours continue through the mouthwatering finish.
