Viña Olabarri
Rioja Blanco Viura Blend
La Rioja, Spain
A 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.
