Description

Viña Pomal embodies the best winemaking tradition of the Upper Rioja. Viña Pomal Blanco is made from the region’s traditional varietals, Viura and Malvasía. Fermented in new barrels of American oak and French oak (50/50) at a temperature of 15-18 degrees Celsius and left 4 months in contact with the lees. Helped by gentle stirrings of the lees, the wine gains in complexity and volume on the palate.

Tasting Notes

Appearance

A pale yellow with slight greyish steel hues.
Nose

A rich aromatic bouquet. Notes of white fruit, citrus and fennel with a light tastiness from aging in oak.
Palate

Friendly and fresh on the palate, transmits the balance of the fruit with certain notes of salinity. Good length and volume provide the fineness of a single area where we work these strains of white.

Sommelier Review

“The Viña Pomal Blanco is a blend of Viura with 30% Malvasía Riojana , fermented in oak barrels where it matured in contact with the lees for four months. It has some aromas of hay and straw intermixed with apples and hints of aniseed. The palate is fresh and clean and makes it easy to drink just nice if you want try something different.”
