John Duval, "Plexus" Marsanne/Roussanne/Viognier - Barossa, Australia

peach | ginger | elegant
Grape: Marsanne, Roussanne, Viognie
Region: Barossa Valley, Australia
Winemaking: All varieties were gently pressed. The pressings were then combined with the free run juice and cold settled. Fermentation commenced entirely in stainless steel tanks with some of the Marsanne completing fermentation, and then maturation, in oak. The remaining Marsanne and the Roussanne were matured on lees in tank until bottling, to enhance the structure and texture of the finished wine. 40% of the total blend was aged in fine-grain French oak (20% new) for six months.
