The 2023 Yeringberg Viognier is a refined Yarra Valley expression of this aromatic Rhône variety, produced by one of the region's most respected family-owned estates. The cool 2023 growing season has delivered a wine with purity and balance, offering aromas of apricot, quince and yellow apple alongside hints of acacia honey, orange blossom, ginger and white tea.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied and beautifully textured, with layers of stone fruit and citrus supported by bright natural acidity and a fine phenolic edge. Barrel fermentation and maturation in large-format oak add complexity and depth without overshadowing the fruit, resulting in a wine that is balanced, focused and persistent through the finish.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Viognier for those who enjoy aromatic white wines with both texture and freshness. Drinking beautifully now, it will continue to evolve over the next 3–5 years. Pair with roast chicken, grilled prawns, pork dishes, rich seafood or lightly spiced Asian cuisine.
