2023 Rioja Blanco Finca Alto Cantabria, Conde Valdemar
Straw yellow with greenish hues, clean and bright. Intense aromas of almond blossom and peach, with delicate hazelnut. In the mouth it is complex, full-bodied, with a savoury and saline character characteristic of the limestone soil of Alto Cantabria. Long and very elegant aftertaste.
"Aromas of green spices, vanilla, marzipan and white fruit. Supple and round on the palate, with moderate acidity and a sappy, woody twist to the lightly saline finish. Better in 2026." James Suckling
