Tahbilk Viognier · Nagambie Lakes, Australia · 2021
The Moment
This is the bottle that gets opened when dinner feels intentional — candles lit, food simmering, music already chosen. It’s generous, aromatic, and quietly confident, turning an ordinary night into something that feels planned (even if it wasn’t).
What It Feels Like
Lifted florals come first — rose petals, orange blossom, honeysuckle — followed by waves of ripe apricot, honeyed peach, and tropical melon. On the palate, the wine is lush and softly textured, almost waxy in the best way, with flavors of stone fruit, citrus zest, and a gentle ginger spice. Bright acidity keeps everything balanced, finishing long, clean, and impossibly smooth.

Why We Love It
Tahbilk is a Viognier benchmark, and this bottle shows why. It’s expressive without being heavy, aromatic without being sweet — a wine that delivers depth, texture, and elegance in equal measure. Award-winning for a reason, and unforgettable once poured.
