Finca Allende
Rioja Viura Blend
Pale straw color with stone fruit and citrus aromas. On the palate flavors of peach and grapefruit with herb and grassy notes. Good balance with lively acidity, medium+ finish ending with floral spice notes.

Aug 4th, 2024Dark red clear color; nose of red cherries, malbec-like ripe black currant, watery brook minerality, coffee, and a touch of toasted oak; smooth taste, small fine tannins, high acids and medium-high alcohol, fruity as heck, and a long strong finish. Producer in Alta Rioja, untrellised 45 year-old vines, 14 mo in french barriques, bottled non-fined and unfiltered. 20 USD, 14% alc, feels higher.

Jun 7th, 2023Delicious Rioja with lovely cream and vanilla flavors. Finishes with a citric acid finish. The nose is fragrant with flowers and citrus. Much better than I expected. Drink now: there’s no aging potential.
