Remelluri 2020 Rioja Blanco 750ml

The exceptional 2020 Blanco is from vines between 605 and 805 meters above sea level that were harvested over multiple passes after one episode of hail. This vintage had a slow fermentation, and it feels like a year of finesse and elegance. The wine has fluidity, elegance but also intensity, depth and very pure flavors, with a very saline finish, super tasty. This could very well be the finest vintage for the white... It's not a shy wine, with 14.2% alcohol and a low pH of 3.3, denoting very good freshness. 9,969 bottles were filled in June 2022 from almost 10 hectares of vineyards.
