Which wrapper do you find it goes best with?

I like it. Yes, not easy. Viso is my favored priming. First thoughts .. maybe inline with the thread so far but, I don't want to overlook any leaf so, I will visit it to return.
Come on MarcL ,, you must have a favorite in your nights
The difficulty I find in your initial question is that "favorite viso" depends on what else will be in the cigar. What percentage of the viso? How much of what ligero? How much of what seco? What will be used for wrapper and binder. How large a ring size? How long a cigar. A single "favorite" viso is, for me, an unanswerable question, when there is no blend context.
I do understand your motivation for asking. Perhaps a better question would be which viso variety is most versatile in numerous blends and cigar dimensions and assorted binders and wrappers.

Yes Condega but, I need more time to be sure. I should say that I look at priming as a blend position aside from its listing.
.. and what Bob said while I wrote the above. Its a endless joyful complication for me.

Correct. What if it has no viso listing and works in the viso position?

Upon asking a famous cigar blender and manufacturer what his favorite tobacco is, I was able to secure a couple of bales from his private stash. From the crop year 2018 Leaf size is approximately 12"
