The Hermit Crab Viognier Marsanne

2009 Adelaide Viognier, Marsanne

Global Wine Company The Hermit Crab Viognier Marsanne is a delightful white wine hailing from the picturesque Adelaide region. This vintage, crafted from a harmonious blend of Viognier and Marsanne varietals, showcases a captivating pale straw color that glimmers in the glass. With a medium body, the wine offers a refreshing balance, complemented by a bright acidity that enlivens the palate. Aromatic notes of stone fruit, such as apricot and peach, intertwine with hints of floral nuances, creating a beautifully expressive bouquet. The wine exhibits a subtle minerality that enhances its complexity, while remaining dry and approachable. The mouthfeel is smooth, featuring soft tannins that contribute to a rounded finish, making it an ideal companion for light seafood dishes or summer salads.
