Welcome to a vibrant world of taste with our 2022 Viognier, straight from Chile’s Colchagua Valley! This lively blend of Marsanne grapes beckons with high minerality. Expect citrusy zing and delicate apricot or orange blossom notes that set the stage for an unforgettable experience.
Picture this: the nose reveals high minerality, like freshly drenched concrete after a summer rain, intertwined with lively citrus and the delicate essence of apricot or orange blossoms. But the magic doesn’t stop there – it’s all balanced, no acidity tantrums here. Your taste buds are in for a treat with a soft, round mouthfeel that leaves you with a clean, crisp finish.
Now, let’s talk food because this wine loves to mingle. Pair it with succulent white fish and a zesty mango chutney, or let it cozy up to creamier cheeses. Feeling fancy? Try it with shrimp remoulade or toss it alongside your favorite salads.
To serve it up perfectly, chill it between 11-12°C (52-54°F). And here’s a secret tip: pop it in the fridge 15-30 minutes before pouring for that extra refreshing kick.
