OK, So you can't afford the Rhone valley this year, Or next perhaps? Transend the budgetary controls and enjoy this engaging, mouth tantalizing and a blend of the old world from terrific old vine grapes right here in Victoria. A smashing blend that simply marries beautifully with food or stares at you all day awaiting your next sip like a well behaved Jack Russell. This intriguing blend of Marsanne and Viognier results in a fragrant and elegant white wine. It displays aromas and flavours of lifted apricots, citrus notes and floral hints with a viscous mouth feel and good length. The end result is a gorgeous length, mouthfilling length and steamy flavour profile that keeps you coming back for more!

Fruit for the Basilisk Marsanne Viognier was harvested during the cool of night, to maintain fruit freshness, after which the juice was cold settled and cold fermented in stainless steel tanks. Yeast lees were naturally settled before cold stabilisation and filtration of the wine occurred. Neither the Marsanne nor the Viognier were exposed to any oak during the production of this wine.

An enchanting combination of serpent and rooster, the Basilisk is a creature of folklore whose name and legend have inspired the creation of McPherson's premium wine range. This enigmatic blend of two creatures’ parallels our concept of uniquely styled wines, each individually crafted by combining exceptional parcels of fruit with passionately applied winemaking techniques to create a wine true to its variety and regional origin.
