Plácet Valtomelloso Rioja Viura

100% viura and only white Alavaro Palacios produces; medium weight, lemon custard, creme brûlée & honeysuckle w solid acidity and mouthfilling flavor.

I'm a huge fan. 100% Viura, old vine, high elevation... This is what happens when bomb-ass red wine makers produce stuff they want to drink in the summer....

One of my all time fave white wines.

Clean fresh. Firm ripe stone fruits and viscosity.

Interesting

Ordered off their list and went well with their tapas style menu. Lemon citrus, pear, honey, creme brûlée, acacia flower with steely acid and a mineral finish.

Fantastic

Great nose, clean stone fruit, creamy texture, bright acidity

Floral and mineral with a lightly lingering finish.

Light oak, with subtle notes of stone and spice. Very unusual, but highly drinkable dry summer white. A good woe to talk about with friends.
