CVNE, Barrel Fermented Blanco, Rioja, Spain 2022

Lemon curd, frangipane and buttered croissant dominate the nose. The palate follows with moreish almonds and marzipan over fleshy melon, yellow apples and Asian pear. The use of American oak traces this wine's outline with a vivid line of vanilla, toasted coconut and baked pineapple, which linger on the palate.
