C.V.N.E. (Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España)
Monopole Clasico Blanco Seco Viura
La Rioja, Spain
Richly textured, mineral, wonderful saline wine. Some fresh and preserved citrus and crushed stone fruit, plus lightly toasted almond notes coming through too. Wonderful oceanic mineral bitterness from the sherry addition on the finish. I intend to buy a case to forget about for 20 years.
This is the best $25 bottle of white you could buy for immediate enjoyment or cellaring.

Finished in Sherry casks. Very cool savory element to this. Salty minerality and green apple. Very unique but reminds me somewhat of dry Alsace Riesling

Minerally white finished in sherry bottles. A favorite. Great with food - a perfect roast chicken wine.
