White peach and ripe pear lead the nose, lifted by apricot, heather, orange blossom and a gentle floral spice. It has the natural generosity of Viognier, but Creation’s Hemel-en-Aarde freshness keeps it bright, graceful and far from heavy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOn the palate, it is dry, smooth and expressive, with juicy stone fruit, soft pear and a clean mineral line through the finish. The texture is rounded enough to feel satisfying, while the acidity keeps everything lively and food-friendly. A brilliant bottle for anyone who wants a white with more aroma and softness than Sauvignon Blanc, but still plenty of freshness and poise.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor when\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA fragrant white needs freshness as well as charm.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePairs with\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrilled prawns, roast chicken, Thai green curry, crab salad, pork tenderloin, lightly spiced noodles, butternut squash risotto, soft goat’s cheese or peach and burrata salad.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCreation was the first estate in the Hemel-en-Aarde to plant Viognier, and this wine shows why the variety works so well here. The cool maritime climate and high ridge setting help preserve acidity and aromatic lift, giving a style that is floral and gently textured without becoming oily or overripe. It is a fresh, elegant Cape take on a famously expressive grape.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wine Republic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54799852634497,"sku":null,"price":19.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/0513\/9841\/files\/creation-viognier-600x600_png.webp?v=1762288175","url":"https:\/\/www.wine-republic.co.uk\/products\/2025-viognier-creation","provider":"Wine Republic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
