Kalleske 'Plenarius' Viognier 2023 - Barossa Valley, South Australia

Plenarius is deep copper gold in colour. Varietal Viognier abounds with notes of honeysuckle, tropical fruit juice, honey, dried apricots, lemongrass, perfume, and a nuance of cream sherry. The palate concurrently appears sweet and dry. Whilst there is no residual grape sugar, the inherent ‘sweet’ oily fruits of Viognier give the wine a luscious pseudo sweetness. This is balanced with chalky skin phenolics adding a cleansing dryness.
The natural acidity is in check, perfectly adequate to add a bright edge. Richly flavoured, very drinkable, this dynamic wine is completed with a vast finish. It is a very engaging Viognier with its complex mesh of aromas, flavours and textures providing a provocative and enchanting drink.
