Wine: Paul Jaboulet 2022 Viognier, France $23.73
Why I chose it:
- It‘s a delicious dry white wine at an attractive price
- If you like NZ Viognier you will love this wine
- Viognier is an aromatic grape variety which means it often has a floral character (in this case “wildflowers”)
- Often blended with Syrah to make it softer and more perfumed.
What does it taste like?
- Ripe, attractive viognier with classic apricot and wildflower flavours supported by subtle citrus characters. Appealing wine that is dry without being austere and has weight without being at all clumsy. Excellent value at this price.
Why it’s a bargain:
- Average price for Viognier in this country is $31 and this is well above average quality
Where can you buy it?

- Vine Online, Auckland $24.99
