Quinta Do Monte d'Oiro Viognier Madrigal 2015

Full bodied--adding two or three layers of depth to the Lybra--this Madrigal nicely coats the palate. Fresh and lively, handling its oak beautifully, it then adds delicious bursts of flavor, too. You could drink this elegant Branco alone, but it has the structure and stuffing for food pairings as well. It is beautifully balanced and it should age well, too.

Lightly wood aged but with its fruitiness intact, this ripe wine conveys yellow-fruit flavors. Acidity and minerality dominate the touches of toast and the creamy, vanilla texture. This rich, intense wine needs to develop.
