Rioja DOCa Blanco Reserva Coto de Imaz 2019 El Coto de Rioja

Coto de Imaz Reserva Blanco is an elegant white wine produced from Chardonnay grapes grown in Finca Carbonera, located at a maximum altitude of 875 meters. This unique terroir, characterized by a significant presence of stones on the surface, promotes the health and maturation of the grapes, contributing to the distinctive quality of the wine.

The vinification of Coto de Imaz Reserva Blanco involves destemming and cold maceration of the grapes, followed by delicate pressing. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 16ºC to enhance the aromatic potential of Chardonnay. Subsequently, the wine ages for 12 months in new, untoasted French oak barriques, with regular bâtonnage of the fine lees to improve complexity, unctuousness and longevity, before a further 12 months in the bottle.

This wine offers a complex and persistent aromatic bouquet, combining fruity and floral notes with accents of orange blossom, honey and a delicate vanilla aroma, thanks to the refinement on fine lees and the characteristic freshness of the high altitude vineyard.

Coto de Imaz Reserva Blanco is perfect with poultry dishes, white meats and mushroom dishes.
