NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Quinta do Monte d'Oiro Madrigal Viognier presents a bright, golden color, indicative of its rich and inviting nature.The nose is a delightful bouquet of white flowers, such as jasmine and honeysuckle, coupled with ripe stone fruits like peach and apricot, and a hint of citrus zest. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and creamy, yet balanced by a refreshing acidity. The flavors of ripe peach and apricot persist, accompanied by nuances of vanilla and a subtle minerality. The finish is long and satisfying, with a lingering aftertaste of the aromatic and flavorful profile. This Viognier is a beautiful expression of the Lisbon terroir, showcasing the winery's skill in creating a wine that is both opulent and refined, making it a superb example of Portuguese white winemaking.
