2021 Rioja Bianco Roda I

Tasting notes:

Sourced from the highest and poorest parts of the vineyards barrel fermented and aged for 18 months in French oak barrels. Aromas of white peach with notes of grapefruit peel, citrus and minerals. Full-bodied with a sensation of sweetness, bitterness and freshness at just the right level.
