2021 Viognier, Domaine de La Baume, Languedoc
2021 Viognier, Domaine de La Baume, Languedoc
Wonderfully rich and opulent, the 2021, just like previous vintages, is simply lovely. Once again, seductive perfume sets the tone, with luscious peach and apricot fruit to follow; golden honey in colour, and a beautifully rounded mouthfeel and weight
Tasting note:
Big viognier style at a distinctly small price. Intense, sun-drenched golden yellow, this is a lively and exciting wine with an exotic and opulent character.
Reviews of the previous vintage:
"If you like Viognier as much as I do, you'll love the 2020 Domaine de la Baume 'Elisabeth' Viognier from deep in the Languedoc. The bottle is big and bold and so is the wine, with full-on peach, apricot and honeyed lemon notes. It's far from flabby, though - as Viognier can be if kept unchecked - just delightfully full-flavoured."
Jonathan Ray, The Spectator Magazine
This famous grape from the Rhône Valley has become a favourite with warm climate producers. It thrives in the heat producing wines that are generally high in alcohol and acidity. Good examples have a powerful, aromatic aroma bursting with flowers and stone fruits and on the palate are weighty and mouthfilling.
Today you will find quality Viogniers being produced throughout Southern France and Spain, California, Australia and South America.
