Remirez de Ganuza Blanco Reserva 2018 is a white wine from the D.O.Ca. Rioja known for its elegance and sophistication. Produced by the renowned Bodegas Remírez de Ganuza in Samaniego, in the heart of Rioja Alavesa, this wine is made primarily from Viura grapes, complemented by Malvasía and Garnacha Blanca. The grapes come from over 60-year-old vineyards located at the foothills of the Sierra Cantabria, ensuring the quality and purity of the must. The harvest is manual, and the winemaking process relies on the exclusive use of free-run juice, maximizing the expression of the fruit. After fermentation, the wine is aged in new French oak barrels for a period of 8 to 10 months on its lees. This process gives the wine great complexity, excellent volume, and a creamy texture that seduces with each sip. The aromas that emerge from this aging are delightful: stone fruits, citrus, and aromatic herbs, adorned with subtle toasty and mineral notes. On the palate, the wine is broad, balanced, and has remarkable freshness, leaving a long, persistent finish that highlights the character of the oak and a defined minerality. The Magnum format (1.5 L) not only adds a special touch for sharing on special occasions, but also allows the wine to evolve more slowly in the bottle, enhancing its complexity. This wine is perfect to accompany a wide range of dishes, including baked fish, seafood, rice, and mushrooms, making it an ideal choice for Mediterranean cuisine and for those looking to enjoy a wine with great aging potential.
