Tasting Notes

A White Rioja, made from the Viura grape. It is fermented in French Oak and aged for 6 months in the same barrel and another 6 months in bottle. Notes of dried fruit pastry aromas stand out. When aerated, notes of tropical fruits, mango and peach, appear. It is creamy on the palate, fresh and long.

Critical Praise

Wine Align Reviews

David Lawrason
This is a very stylish, elegant yet firm white Rioja based on the viura grape, a wine that ages well thanks to viura's acidity. It shows subtle, compact aromas of yellow pear, almond, spice and dried herbs. It's mid-weight, fairly creamy but not the least soft. Almost delicate in fact. Very focused and the length is excellent. Tasted October 2022

Michael Godel
Rodrigo Madrid is the agronomist and international consultant while Michel Rolland team member Julien Viaud is the winemaker. This wine pays tribute to the “Montes Obarened,” the mountain range that protects the vineyards of Puente del Ea from the northern climate. The wine is warm and tautly patterned, as far from what could be considered loose or scattered. There is form and also function, a solid core of structure to see this oxidate and age quite gracefully. Should get into white truffle before too long. Drink 2022-2026. Tasted October 2022.
