Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

This is a really pretty Viura with aromas of lemon, hazelnut, and a touch of warm spices. Medium bodied, smooth on the palate, with creamy citrus and nutty notes, and a smooth finish. Enjoy with roasted halibut with a side of green lentils and other fresh vegetables.
Ontañón Vetiver 2020 Viura is fresh on the nose with lemon-lime zest, wild herbs and nutty flavours on the palate. Chill and enjoy with salads and seafood dishes. Drink or hold. - Community Wine Reviews
