Panoramico Rioja Blanco - Rioja Alta 2020 Bottle 13%abv ORG/VGN

Description

Daniel Rodríguez and Alejandro Estebas started Vinos del Panorámico, determined to find the best-forgotten vineyards in Rioja and bring them to their full expression, focusing on terroir rather than on assumptions about a “Rioja style”. Having decided to call their winemaking facilities an “atelier” (workshop) rather than a cellar, their approach is one of craftsmanship and respect for the raw product they get from the dedicated growers they work with. Each wine is, therefore, a unique and unrepeatable ‘piece’ that transports to the workshop the same artisanal focus with which the vineyards are tended to.

50 + year old vines produce a wine which is fresh, fruity and complex. It is a modern and delicious take on white Rioja – a wine more classically known for being oxidised, which this wine is light to medium-bodied and fruity and easily enjoyable. The grape varietals used are Malvasia and Viura that have been organically farmed.

It is a bright straw in colour and the nose is pronounced and expressive – fruity and a tad tropical, expect to enjoy lychees, white peach, Asian pear, lemon and limes, white flowers. In the mouth, it is silky, moreish and with a gradual and subtle freshness that leaves you wanting another sip.

Serve chilled to reveal its balance and texture. It pairs beautifully with seafood, roast vegetables or creamy dishes. Ideal for long lunches or dinner parties, this wine brings a modern twist to a classic region.
