Information

Viognier is a white wine from Spain, known for its pale golden color and rich, aromatic taste. This wine has a delicate aroma of peach, apricot, and a hint of floral notes. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with flavors of ripe fruit, honey, and a smooth, lingering finish. Viognier pairs perfectly with seafood, poultry, and creamy pasta dishes. Its rich, fruity nature makes it a versatile wine that complements both casual and elegant dining experiences.

Fun facts

Unlike its French counterparts, Spanish Viognier tends to exhibit a richer, creamier mouthfeel with tropical notes like pineapple and lychee, often influenced by the region’s sun-drenched vineyards and innovative winemaking techniques.
