    A vivacious early drinking wine of considerable character, this is a true to form Estate Viognier ... classic ginger spice and rose petal aromas surround a palate of stone fruits and honeysuckle notes.
    Early and often would be the recommended drinking for this release ...

    About this winei

    Tahbilk’s first plantings of Viognier were established in 1990 with just over 6.5 hectares now under vine.
    The inaugural vintage was released in 1996 to early critical acclaim with the Estate nominated at the time by Australian Vignerons magazine as producing one of the ‘Benchmark Six’ Australian releases. Recognition has also come on the Australian Wine Show circuit with 4 Trophies, 26 Gold, 46 Silver and 103 Bronze medals awarded to date.

    Enjoy Now to 2026/2027
    After the challenges of the 2023 vintage, the Estate saw an early and successful harvest in 2024 with yields down but quality very good to exceptional. Classic ginger spice and rose petal aromas set this as a true to form Estate Viognier release … a palate of stone fruits and honeysuckle notes further confirmation.
    A vivacious early drinking wine of considerable character.

    Vintage Notesi

    2024 Vintage
    Surprises aren’t really something that I like, in fact after 20 years in the wine industry, you would think that nothing surprises me anymore, but every year it seems that the season does.
    Once again there was high disease pressure, which was partly a carry-over from the previous season, compounded by the intermittent rain and weather events. There also wasn’t the heat that we have seen in previous years, no days above 40 degrees, but none-the-less the season resulted in with the whites and reds ripening at the same time, and organised chaos of vintage once again upon us.
    Our first pick was on the 12th February, and our last on the 21st March, so a speedy six weeks and we had everything into the Winery.
    Yields were overall slightly below average, but quality is looking good, with what I would consider a very good year for the whites overall and selected parcels of reds are outstanding.
    Comparing vintages seems pointless, as every year brings with it its own set of challenges, and 2024 was no different. The final decision is yours as our 2024 are released, when you will be able to enjoy for yourself the outcomes of another challenging but always rewarding, season.
