ALBARIEL
D.O.Ca. Rioja
This Garnacha Blanca comes from the Albariel estate, a vineyard situated on clay-limestone soils with excellent natural drainage. Crafted with a minimal-intervention philosophy, the wine is fermented in 500-liter open-top French oak barrels and concrete tanks, enhancing its volume while preserving its varietal expression. Aging on fine lees results in a wine with a Mediterranean profile, distinguished by its unique acidity, creaminess, and depth, striking a perfect harmony between oak influence and natural freshness.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it displays a golden-yellow hue with a vibrant sheen and greenish highlights—clean and elegant. On the nose, it is fresh and expressive, highlighting ripe white fruit, citrus, and a hint of fennel, set against a subtle backdrop of vanilla and a light toasted note. On the palate, it is full-bodied and balanced, offering a creamy texture, great freshness, depth, and a rich, unctuous quality, leading to a long, elegant finish.
