Deakin Estate Viognier

Deakin Estate Viognier

Deakin Estate’s family owned vineyards lie near Mildura in north west Victoria. Here, the mighty Murray River weaves across the land, bringing life to the region and to our vines. Rich, fertile soils and a warm, sunny climate also create a perfect environment for growing quality fruit to make these delicious wines.

Deakin Estate Viognier fruit was picked when quite ripe to achieve a full, viscous style. Grapes were fermented at 16°C with aromatic yeasts, and the juice was left on lees for a few months to build some weight and complexity. The wine was then put on a small amount of French oak to add roundness and texture.

Enjoy now or will develop over the next four years.
