Voyager Estate Chenin Blanc 2016
A punchy, varietally honest and juicy chenin blanc whose fresh, faintly herbal aromas of melon and papaya precede a generous, round palate whose presence of punchy fruit flavour borders on fattiness, but is brought into line by a fine, chalky phenolic backbone. ItÕs soft and dry, with an uncomplicated, rounded mouthfeel, finishing with surprising length.

Voyager Estate
With a string of consistently fine wines across its entire portfolio, Voyager Estate is one of Margaret River's elite producers. It has achieved this without emulating the styles of other local makers, evolving its own stamp and signature of elegance and savoury qualities which its southerly location in the region encourages
Its estate brings traditional South African Cape Dutch architecture to the region and it certainly provides one of the region's finest visitor experiences. Voyager is steadily increasing the number of wines it produces, working through a series of 'project wines' to refine what eventually become its flagship wines.
