Wildeberg Kleine Oranjerie Viognier 2025
Kleine Oranjerie 'Flora and Fauna' Viognier is a beautifully focused, restrained yet generous wine with a delicacy and lightness of touch not often found in Viognier at this price level. Sourced from Paarl vineyards grown on sandy loams, this wine captures the Cape's marvellous menagerie of vines through judiciously finessed winemaking by JD Rossouw, balancing aromatics, generosity of palate, and freshness. Why You'll Love It This is Viognier with real finesse—beautifully focused, delicate, and expertly balanced with bright acidity that's rare at this price point. Working with vines old and new across the Cape, Kleine Oranjerie captures the varietal character of Viognier through careful timing of harvest, which is crucial to achieving the perfect balance of aromatics, generosity, and freshness. The wine is vegetarian, vegan, and sustainably produced, offering exceptional quality and value for a judiciously finessed South African Viognier. Vineyard & Production Sourced from Paarl vineyards grown on sandy loam soils in the Western Cape. Timing of harvest is crucial to achieving the varietal balance of aromatics, generosity of palate, and freshness. Winemaker JD Rossouw employs careful vineyard management and precise winemaking to create a wine with delicacy and lightness of touch. Tasting Notes Classic varietal nose of jasmine, white peach, and fruit blossom with a hint of white pepper. The palate is ripe and full-flavoured with exotic, tropical fruit flavours balanced by bright, zingy acidity leading to a gingery, textural finish. Perfect Pairings Perfect with Thai green curry, Cape Malay curries, goat's cheese and roast vegetables, grilled seafood, or aromatic Asian cuisine. Also excellent with spicy dishes or creamy pasta.
