John Duval Plexus Rousanne Marsanne Viognier 2022
This wine has body and flavour on entry with melon fruit and hints grapfruits. Dried herbs provide a savoury element, lifted by orange blossoms and white flowers with chalk, minerality and shades of granite adding strength of character as a tight acid line makes for a long, lingering finish.
