TASTING NOTES:

A little smoky at first, with stone fruit, nectarines, hints of acacia, nuttiness, complemented by brisk acidity and a fruity and lightly spicy finish.

FOOD MATCH: Enjoy with rich or heavily-sauced dishes (chicken, fish, pork).

PRESS REVIEWS: The Sun – Matthew Nugent “The lesser-known white Tempranillo grape is getting some traction in Ireland and has become quite popular again in its spiritual home of Rioja in Spain. It is an attractive alternative to better known white varieties. This particular example is the product of a respected co-operative in Rioja Alta. Clean and bright in the glass, it has a pale-yellow colour, with intense aromas of citrus, herbs, and fennel. The palate has good intensity, nicely balanced acidity, and freshness, with citrus, pear, and green apple notes. Enjoy with: Grilled chicken.”
