White

A wine that shows the great potential of Maturana Blanca to produce some of Rioja's most interesting white wines, with the character and expressiveness of a nearly-forgotten variety that is having an exciting comeback. This iteration - fermented and aged, with battonage, in French oak barrels - shows poise and detail but also a moreish, unctuous generosity, perfectly balancing freshness with food friendly appeal. Ripe, creamy citrus, yellow orchard fruit and meaty blanched almonds are delicately lined with dried wildflowers and rose petals. The use of oak is very well judged adding a subtle smoky rim throughout. Lingering touches of dry hay and amaretto. Limited edition of 6,012 bottles.
