Muriel Blanco 2025
DOCa Rioja, Spain
Viura (100%) · 2025 · 13% abv
Fresh, vibrant and full of energy, this Viura bursts with citrus zest, green apple and white blossom aromas. The palate is bright and juicy with crisp acidity, a touch of grapefruit and stone fruit, and a refreshing, mineral-driven finish — a modern, fruit-focused take on white Rioja.
Production
A gentle pressing and 3-hour skin maceration to achieve a high aroma intensity. Most of the wine fermented in stainless steel vats under temperature control in order to enhance its aromas and freshness. A small percentage fermented in French oak barrels.
Vineyard
Grapes are sourced from calcareous soils in Rioja Alavesa and Rioja Alta, where low fertility and excellent drainage concentrate flavour. The region’s Atlantic influence ensures cool nights and slow ripening, preserving aromatic precision and freshness in the fruit.
Pairing
Ideal with fresh seafood — from grilled prawns to sushi — or crisp green salads. Its citrus brightness also makes it a versatile partner for lighter tapas, and it’s refreshing enough to serve as an aperitif before a meal.
