| Cellar Notes: | A modern, fruity style of wine from Spain's leading wine region, Rioja. It's zippy, young and dry with fresh fruit aromas that blend citrus pineapple and white fruit. Prior to pressing, all excess wine must is run-off and added to the fermentation tank. Fermentation then takes place at 18°C (not exceeding 18°C at any time). Malolactic fermentation is not carried out. |
| Appearance: | Pale yellow with green hues, clean and bright |
| Aromas: | Intense, floral and clean aromas with tropical fruit notes of pineapple, coconut and grapefruit. |
| Palate: | Fresh and fruity on the palate with an oily mouth-feel and medium length |
| Serving Notes: | The crisp acidity of Viura compliments these dishes wonderfully; salmon, dill and cream cheese spread, gingered fish and watercress soup or Chinese barbecued pork with garlic sauce. |
