2009 Kangarilla Road Good Intentions
McLaren Vale experienced cool conditions in December 2008 and most of January 2009 with temperatures only climbing above 30°C on three days up until a hot spell in late January. The rest of the 2009 summer was relatively mild allowing the fruit to develop with balanced characters.
Our Viognier, grown on the Estate vineyard is a fresh, aromatic, citrus driven modern style complemented by a balanced use of oak with 30% of the wine fermented in new French oak Barriques. The wine matured for 3 months with occasional barrel stirring early. This oak component is unobtrusive yet critical to the overall aroma and flavour of the final wine.
