Singlefile The Vivienne Chardonnay 2012

$80.00

Tasted at thirteen years of age, this is a mature but very lively and flavoursome chardonnay able to marry toasty, buttery bottle development with a fine, savoury and faintly saline lick of acidity and a palate of fruit that is surprisingly youthful. Lifted by floral notes, smoky mineral scents of grapefruit, coriander, nougat and stonefruit precede an impactful and tightly defined palate whose acidity and mineral crunch work perfectly to retain freshness and focus. Just beginning to show its best.

Winery

Singlefile
Phil and Viv Snowden, a couple of South African geologists, established their family wine business in 2007 with the purchase of a vineyard in Denmark in the southern portion of the Great Southern wine region. The family's next generation of Pam and Patrick Corbett are today running the operation, which takes its name from the geese resident on the property, which march in single file through the vineyards to the nearby lake every day at dusk. The wines are steadily improving Đ a process I expect to continue for some time yet as the company gets closer to realising its hearteningly lofty quality ambitions.
