Allende Blanco 2018 is a prominent white wine from the D.O.Ca. Rioja, artfully crafted by Bodega Finca Allende, founded by renowned winemaker Miguel Ángel de Gregorio in Briones, the heart of Rioja Alta. With 95% Viura and a small percentage of Malvasía, this wine comes from over 50-year-old, sustainably farmed vineyards. After meticulous manual harvesting, the wine is fermented in new French oak barrels, where it undergoes approximately 14 months of aging on the lees. This process grants the wine exceptional complexity and structure, as well as notable aging potential.
Visually, Allende Blanco 2018 presents a bright golden-yellow color. On the nose, it showcases elegance and complexity, with aromas evoking grapefruit, stone fruits like peach and plum, alongside delicate balsamic and mineral hints. On the palate, it is broad, creamy, and very balanced, offering great volume and well-integrated freshness, with a long, persistent finish that reflects the character of the Rioja terroir.
This wine is ideal for pairing with baked fish, seafood, rice dishes, white meats, or Mediterranean cuisine. Thanks to its structure and elegance, Allende Blanco 2018 in Magnum format (1.5 L) allows for a slower evolution in the bottle, enhancing its complexity and making it an exceptional choice for sharing on special occasions.
