The truth is, it’s tricky to grow, however, in Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula and the Eden Valley and McLaren Vale of South Australia, several vineyards have certainly cracked it. 

In our opinion Yalumba and Viognier go hand in hand - and thier dedication to the variety continues to be recognised and rewarded. 

Like Chardonnay, Australian Viognier is also great when matured or fermented in oak barrels.  It is often blended with other white Rhone varieties Marsanne or Roussanne. It can also can beco-fermented with Shiraz, a small addition of Viognier adds complexity and perfume.

Yalumba 'The Virgilius' Eden Valley Viognier is Yalumba's most distinguished white wine and premium Viognier offering. With more than 27 years of experience with this variety, Yalumba today is one of the most influential producers of Viognier in the world.
Late 2005 saw the first plantings of Yalumba's Viognier clonal selections, propagated at their Vine Nursery on the Barossa Valley floor. Eight different clones were planted in a vineyard in Eden Valley - 'The Virgilius Vineyard', which today represents the most clonally diverse planting of Viognier in Australia. Although it will still be a few years before these vines bear fruit ideal for The Virgilius, this is the next exciting stage in Yalumba's Viognier journey.
The nose displays intense aromas of white peach, apricot and ginger. Ginger spice is layered on the palate with mineral texture allure with complex apricots and white stone fruit flavours. The trademark Viognier lusciousness of the palate is clearly evident in this wine which is unctuous and complex while at the same time, showing restraint that should ensure good cellaring for at least 3-4 years. This wine is at its best with food, and complements a wide range of flavours.
