The Foundry Viognier 2007, Stellenbosch (6)The ProducerThe Foundry was established in 2000 (first vintage 2001) as a joint venture between winemaker Chris Williams (right) and James Ried. Chris is the winemaker at Meerlust (he started there in 2004), where the wines are now made. Chris is allowed to make a 1,000 cases a year under his present contract at Meerlust; he’s aware that his shelf-life at Meerlust is limited, and he wants to step into something that is already viable when he leaves one day. The Foundry is a superb effort that is going from strength to strength.The WineVery fresh, aromatic nose is quite perfumed, with flowery, gently peachy fruit. The palate has a nice fresh texture with rich, grapey, peachy fruit plus some good acidity and a bit of vanilla. There is subtle oak influence. Sophisticated, with real personality. Drink now to 2012+
