Another stunner from DiamAndes, this Viognier has a wonderfully expressive nose of stone fruits and flowers, with a juicy, waxy palate that puts one in the mind of the Rhone. A superb example of Argentine Viognier!
In the heart of Clos de los Siete, Bodega DiamAndes stands as a winemaking haven, producing wines that resonate with intensity and finesse from their beautiful vineyards high up in Argentina's Uco Valley. Set up in 2005 by the esteemed Bonnie Family (the famous name behind Malartic Lagraviere & Gazin Rocquencourt), this is another very successful project from an established Bordeaux dynasty.
A truly exceptional example of what Viognier can achieve in Argentina. Lovely floral notes combine with soft peaches and a hint of tropical fruits, still fresh but with a well rounded body and luxuriously long finish.

What the critics say:
"This has an attractive nose of salted pineapple, cream, apricots, honeysuckle and nutmeg. Medium- to full-bodied, with fresh acidity and creamy layers of fresh fruit. Spicy, too. Drink now."
"The 2021 DiamAndes ‘de Uco’ Viognier is made with similar care and attention. 100 per cent Viognier, it spends 10 months in French oak (30 per cent new) and although I found it rather mute on the nose, it has subtle peach and apricot notes in the mouth and a whisper of cream and citrus on the finish. A class act, it can more than hold its head up against the northern Rhône."
