Word of Mouth Viognier – 2022

R 150.00 per bottle (6 per case)

Word of mouth is one of the most effective ways to spread news and share a discovery, and it’s how we would like Flagstone’s Viognier to become more widely known. A wine of such exciting substance that you can’t help but tell your friends about it.

Conveying this message through word of mouth carries its own ironic twist in that this white wine grape is somewhat of an articulatory challenge and its pronunciation often leaves people tongue tied. At first glance one’s not quite sure if this word should roll, bounce or pop off the tongue, so by naming our Viognier, “Word of Mouth” we make it that much easier to order off a menu.

Colour
In the glass, this wine is a brilliant white gold colour.

Bouquet
Aromas of water melon and peaches, with a floral hint.

Palate
Summer fruit aromas follow through on the palate with a hint of spiciness. Medium bodied with a fresh acidity and lingering aftertaste.

Food
Viognier is a food wine and it goes brilliantly with all sorts of food, its ample body and wonderful aroma make an unusual and exciting combination. This wine is fantastic with seafood, but also try it with salads, smoked salmon and spicy dishes.

A particular favourite pairing is with steamed mussels in a masala coconut broth.
