Expert Opinion
In the press...
Matthew Jukes - Weekend (Daily Mail) 03/12/2011Turn up the richness a few notches with this exotically spiced peach and wild honey-scented beauty. I've picked it as one of my elite Cape wines of the year. The 2011 vintage that follows is a star, too - so there's even more goodness to come!
Jamie Goode - S Magazine (Sunday Express) 11/12/2011This sophisticated white has lovely aromatic: peach, pear and coconut. In the mouth it's generous and complex with rich fruit and some spicy oak notes.
Hamish Anderson - Daily Telegraph 25/02/2012Of the 2010 vintage, Hamish Anderson said: “A range of wine appears under the Bernard Series, but this Rhone-inspired blend is my favourite. There is deceptive power and texture here to marry with the sticky meat, but also bright, savoury elements to counter its richness."

This review is for the 2010 vintage
Being a big Viognier fan and having enjoyed the fantastic USA viognier, I bought a bottle of this and ended up buying another 2 cases - and will be buying more when I get some space. This is a big glass of wine and superb value even at £10.99. Do not serve this too cold, it needs some air round it and then it delivers a big mouthful of flavour and a long lasting finish - it is a lot like an expensive white burgundy and I get more of the big flavours - peach, vanilla and a slightly sweet taste - there is nothing sharp or harsh about this. Perhaps a bit lacking in the tropical fruit - pineapple - that I associate with French viognier but a great alternative to condrieu at a fraction of the price. Buy a bottle to try it and you won't be disappointed, just writing makes my taste buds tingle, I think I will go and open a bottle now!
