A sweet-spiced nose of yellow fruits, vanilla seeds and banana skin. Matured on lees in French oak for 12-18 months, this 2016 vintage white Rioja showcases great concentration of buttered apricot, grapefruit and pineapple flavours, leading to depth of dried fruits. The ripe palate is lifted by bright acidity (6.2g/l). Concentrated and long.
