White

Reserva

Made from Viura grapes grown in Elciego, Rioja Alavesa. The fruit undergoes fermentation for 20 days in French oak barrels followed by further maturation over eight months in the same vessels. The wine is finally aged a minimum of 18 months in the bottle before release. SJE: Glorious limpid gold colour. The palate is complex, layered with creamy oak, crisp lemon acidity, fresh herbs,  and a salty finish. A fine example of how white reserva can be. MF: Lovely mid-gold colour. Vibrant acidity carries the finish. Overall elegant and complex. BW: Golden in colour, showing some age. Very ripe apricot and honeyed notes. Fleshy and sweet... a wine with a lot of freshness and a lemony finish, but attractive evolved notes. Great to drink now.
