Product Notes

Rich and elegant, Abel Mendoza Viura DOCa Rioja is a remarkable Spanish white wine cultivated in Spain's prestigious Rioja region. This unusual Viura captivates with aromatic notes of green apple, pear, and subtle floral undertones. The palate is balanced and refined, offering crisp acidity and well-integrated minerality. Its bright, fresh character is complemented by a rounded, silky texture resulting from meticulous aging in French oak barrels. Exhibiting an appealing luminous yellow hue, this wine denotes quality and traditional winemaking prowess - certainly a cue to Rioja's unwavering reputation for world-class wines. A superb choice for discerning wine lovers.

Tasting Notes

Straw yellow. Intense aromas, floral, very perfumed, with good fruit expression in the foreground, and well integrated wood notes of balsamic and dried grass. In the mouth it has superb acidity with a bright, smooth, silky and pleasant finish.
