Rioja Blanco Viura Blend

Pale Gold. Aromas of Pear Melon and some earth and hints of honey. Textural and mouth filling on the palate with low acid. Simple and satisfying. A quality Spanish quaffer.

Feb 21st, 2017A ripe blend with Viura aka Macabeo to the fore. Quite aromatic spicy notes of peach and hint of pepper finishing dry. Often typical of Mediterranean whites which have a rush of fruit cut short by piercing acid. Made for food.

Jul 26th, 2016No vintage. Must be a blend of years. Viura is the Rioja name for the grape Macabeo. Quite a honeyed nose. Like many Mediterranean whites this is unctuous and a little viscous but then perversely finishes with an acidic cleansing finish. Good and different.

Primarily Viura with a bit of Malvasia and Grenache Blanc blended in. Pale gold color with light green highlights. Aromas of citrus, peach, and white flowers. Hint of phenolics. Pallet is citrus driven with notes of honey and minerals. Long finish with vibrant acidity. Mouth coating, fresh tasting and round.
