A new Rioja producer that specializes in whites, 100% Viura aged 16 months on the lees. 10 months in tank, 6 in 80% used and 20% new French oak barrels. This is an exceptional wine of very high quality, displaying beautiful clarity of terroir with intense precision and tension. Deeply mineral and fresh with tense acidity that is energizing and electric. Fresh citrus, nuts, saline, spring flowers, and chalky-limestone minerality.
Superb value at $23.
