Unoaked white from Rioja with a beautiful nose of white flowers, crunchy pear and peach with a touch of fresh cheese and flint. Intriguing palate with a curious tension between minerality and fruit weight. Very good contributions from each of the varieties in the blend: the weight of Viura, the florality of Malvasia and the structure of Tempranillo Blanco.
