Viognier 'No es Pituko' Vina Echeverria 2023
Red 14% ABV ABV EcheverriaSolid Chilean Viognier
I'm trying to explore more Viognier and this was a decent one to try. The nose is really expressive and the palate has more going on than I expected at this price point. Not life-changing but well made and I finished the bottle happily enough. The 'No es Pituko' name made me smile too.
Great summer wine
Bought a couple of bottles for a BBQ and everyone really enjoyed it. Super fragrant, almost perfumy which I loved. Nice and balanced, not too sweet or too boozy even though it's 14%. Would pair well with chicken or just on its own in the garden.
Really nice for the price
Picked this up from the wine shop on a whim because the guy behind the counter recommended it. Really aromatic and floral straight away, lovely stuff. Good acidity too so it doesn't feel heavy despite being 14%. At under £15 I'd definitely buy it again.
Fine but not amazing
Had this at a friend's dinner party. It's perfectly drinkable and smells gorgeous but I felt like for nearly £15 I could find something a bit more interesting. Decent Viognier though, clean finish and not too oily like some can be.
