Description
Bodega Vivanco white wine is produced in Rioja from native white grapes Viura, Tempranillo Blanco and Maturana Blanca. The label is the work of art "Variedades modernas" by Maria Angeles Kareaga Hormaza, which wants to represent the complexity and personality of this wine.
The Tempranillo Blanco and Maturana Blanca grapes are harvested by hand in the second week of September, while the Viura grapes at the end of it. They are vinified separately, starting with a short cold maceration of 6–10 hours, after which the must is fermented in thermoregulated steel tanks. Ageing is in steel too, where the wines remain 4 months on the fine lees.
Straw yellow in colour with greenish reflections, the wine opens to the nose with aromas of white flowers, citrus fruits, green apple and white peach. The sip is fresh and savoury with a fairly long finish.
Ideally served as an aperitif accompanied by tapas, it also goes well with light risottos, pasta and rice salads, white meats and fish.
