Description
It is made entirely from the Viura grape variety, resulting in a single-varietal wine with a clean aromatic bouquet and well-integrated flavours. It is a product protected under the Singular Vineyard denomination, one of the most exclusive that can be granted by the Regulating Council of the D. O. Ca. Rioja, which must comply with a rigorous quality control.
This wine is produced in the winery of the Hernáiz brothers, in the municipality of Baños de Rioja. The soils on which the vineyard is planted have a clayey and calcareous composition, with a surface layer of pebbles, which guarantees low humidity retention and better grape development.
Winemaking
The production process involves a manual harvest, with careful selection of the best fruit, maceration on the skins for 6 hours and fermentation in concrete and barrels.
As for the final ageing period, this was carried out in two ways: the first in concrete and the second in oak barrels for approximately 10 months, for a total maturation process of almost two years.
Taste
The nose is complex and clean, with fresh and clean notes. On the palate it has a fatty and persistent flavour. Long finish, with balanced acidity and good body, ideal to serve as an accompaniment to main courses!
The best choice for connoisseurs
Lovers of white wines will find in this new release from the Hernáiz Brothers a mature bouquet, which in turn translates into an attractive proposal. If you are looking for an ideal alternative to pair with grilled white meats or cheeses with a delicate flavour and creamy texture, this is your best option.
