A lively and impressive Viura with classic freshness and dry qualities that push it along a level plane. The nose is all apple and pear, while the palate brings kick and tasty flavors of apple and dry spice. Smooth, juicy and ripe on the finish. Drink now through 2012.

The bouquet provides plenty of kick as well as a hint of acacia. The palate is dry and full of green apple and nuts. Remains dry and seltzer-like on the finish, where light citrus fills any voids. Not overly flavorful or complex, but a solid white Rioja for near-term drinking.

Basic, fresh and fruity, with floral aromas that capture the essence of clean, tank-made Viura. Flavors of melon, banana and papaya are easy to like but not that serious, while the finish is soft and creamy, but not very intense.
