Tasting notes: Its nose is very expressive with aromas of white fruits, peach, accompanied by notes of flowers, a typical Viognier complexity. On the palate, the attack is lively and fat, the palate unctuous and gourmet revealing notes of apricots and exotic fruits.
Background: Bodega Garzón is close to Punta del Este, La Barra, and Jose Ignacio – Uruguayan Paradise at its best, with mesmerizing landscapes. Located eleven miles from the Atlantic Ocean, our estate has more than 1,000 small vineyard blocks covering its hillside slopes, which benefit from varying microclimates, different levels of humidity, and an intense canopy management. These factors allow the vines to develop with maximum exposure to the sun providing rich, expressive fruit. The vineyards are surrounded by lush forests, rocky soils, granite boulders, and naturally occurring palm trees.
Tasting Notes: This wine has a firm acidity with unparalleled aromatics of honeysuckle, green apple, and ripe pear. Flavours of dried apricot and white peach add to its lushness, while the steely minerality adds a refreshing element. In the mouth, it is juicy with an unctuous quality, making it an elegant wine with an intense finish.
Region: Rhone, France Grape Variety: Viognier Tasting Notes: Pale gold colour, beautiful exotic nose, lightly apricot style. It exhibits an intense and pure expression of apricot-orange marmalade, some body and fleshy but with a certain balance still. We do respect the fruit expression and finesse in using only a limit quanitity of new oak, together with older barrels. Filtration is very light. Food Pairing: Suggested food pairings for this wine are rich fish dishes, fish in sauce, veal with cream, cured meats, poultry and lamb dishes.
