Creation Viognier 2025 is a cool-climate Walker Bay white that shows the variety in a fresher, more finely drawn style than many broader examples. Planted on south-facing slopes, it balances Viognier’s natural stone-fruit richness with lively acidity and a mineral edge, giving the wine both generosity and lift. This is a polished, expressive white that feels aromatic and rounded without losing its sense of line.

The nose opens with juicy peach and ripe pear, with a subtle floral character that brings to mind spring growth and fynbos. On the palate, apricot and stone fruit lead, supported by a refreshing minerality and a natural acidity that keeps the wine bright and energetic. The texture is silky and rounded, but the finish remains crisp and composed rather than heavy. It would work beautifully as an aperitif, while also pairing naturally with creamy pasta, roast chicken, or lighter poultry dishes where its fruit and freshness can settle into the meal.

Already highly appealing, this is a Viognier made for youthful enjoyment, though its balance and lees work should allow it to hold nicely over the near term.
