Vina Del Pedregal Eloisa Limited Collection Viognier 2019
This Viognier comes from Chile's Loncomilla Valley, a sub-region within the Maule Valley, which benefits from a warm climate moderated by coastal breezes. The soils here are typically alluvial and deep, providing excellent drainage and contributing to the slow ripening of the grapes, which is essential for producing complex, aromatic wines like this one.
Made from 100% Viognier, this wine is a dry white that showcases the varietal's signature aromatic profile - intense fruitiness and floral notes. Viognier is known for its richness and texture, and this wine exemplifies those qualities with balance and elegance.
The grapes undergo fermentation in French oak barrels, which adds depth and complexity to the wine. The use of oak contributes a toasty richness that complements the fruit-forward character, enhancing the overall texture and mouthfeel.
The 2019 Eloisa Viognier is bright and golden-yellow in colour with hints of green. On the nose, it is intense and aromatic, dominated by apricot and peach aromas, accompanied by subtle toasty and vanilla notes from barrel fermentation. On the palate, it is creamy and sweet with a well-balanced acidity, offering a rich, full-bodied experience with complex layers of stone fruit and soft floral nuances. The finish is elegant, showcasing the wine's fine structure.
This wine pairs wonderfully with grilled salmon, tuna, and duck breast. It also complements stuffed mushrooms, vegetarian dishes, and charcuterie boards with a selection of soft cheeses such as brie and camembert.
