Philip Shaw The Dreamer VIOGNIER 2023

A wonderfully aromatic Viognier with an abundance of citrus and floral notes. The palate is very tropical and fruit driven with apricot, citrus fruit and pear. Full in flavour with gentle acidity, making this a very balanced and elegant wine. The Viognier grapes come from the dry, cool coast of the Limari Valley.

A really well-made, organic southern French white.

Deep, purple core. Rich, berry fruit aromas with lots of ripe, red plum and hints of white pepper. Some floral notes in the background, including violets, lavender, and spring blossoms. The palate displays dark fruit flavours, revealing white pepper, cinnamon, clove and vanilla spice. Gentle oak integration bodes well for a long and graceful bottle maturation of this wine. 97% Syrah, 3% Viognier.

Although famed for its red wines, white wines have a long heritage in the southern Rhône valley, where the locals enjoy an occasional glass at the start of a warm evening. La Fleur Solitaire is therefore a solitaire amongst the rubies of our Boutinot Rhône range; a white Côtes du Rhône made from traditional southern Rhône white grape varieties.
