This Tara Viognier V8 is a rare and thoughtful white wine born of the solera tradition in Chile’s Atacama Desert. Its aromatic profile unfolds in layers of candied orange peel, orange blossom, lime, sponge cake and dried fruit, all wrapped in a crystalline saline complexity that speaks of its austere, mineral soils. The palate is defined by tension and freshness yet broad structure and a persistent, saline finish.
