Discover the unique blend of Carlos Serres Rioja Viura Tempranillo Blanco 2021, a distinguished Spanish white wine that masterfully combines two indigenous Rioja grape varieties. This wine is composed of 85% Viura and 15% Tempranillo Blanco. The latter is a rare mutation of the red Tempranillo grape, first discovered in 1988, offering wines with intense fruity and floral aromas. Carlos Serres
The grapes are sourced from select vineyards around Haro, with vines averaging 10–20 years in age. The winemaking process involves a brief whole berry cold maceration, followed by fermentation at controlled temperatures to preserve the varietal character. The wine is then aged on its lees for two months, enhancing its complexity and mouthfeel. Carlos Serres
Visually, the wine presents a bright, pale yellow color. On the nose, it offers fresh aromas of green apple and lemon zest, complemented by subtle white floral notes. The palate is fresh and fruity, with a lasting finish that balances fruitiness and acidity. Carlos Serres
With an alcohol content of 13%, this wine pairs excellently with fish, shellfish, smoked meats, and various fresh or lightly aged cheeses. Carlos Serres
