Casa Magoni “Manaz” Viognier & Fiano · Valle de Guadalupe, Mexico · 2021
The Moment
This is the wine that shows up when the table is light, the food is fresh, and no one wants anything heavy. It’s the bottle opened while chopping herbs, tossing salads, or grilling fish as the sun drops — effortless, social, and quietly confident.
What It Feels Like
The nose is clean, floral, and inviting, opening with white flowers, honey, and citrus blossom, followed by green apple, pear, lime zest, and grapefruit. As it opens, softer notes of pineapple and apricot drift in, with a subtle herbal lift that keeps everything fresh.
On the palate, the wine is light and graceful, with a smooth texture and bright, refreshing acidity. Citrus and green fruit lead, supported by gentle tropical notes and a floral echo from the Viognier, while the Fiano adds a grounding, slightly earthy backbone. The finish is long, crisp, and elegant, leaving the palate clean and ready for another bite.
