Luis Canas Rioja Blanco Vina Viejas is made from 90% Viura and 10% Malvasia from 60+ year-old vines, barrel-fermented for three and a half months in new French oak.

Grapes are harvested into small crates and sorted by hand, bunch by bunch. Beautiful golden yellow with bright, luminous highlights; the nose is fine and elegant, weaving floral and fruity tones. The palate is dry, with crisp acidity that lends freshness and vivacity and a structured, tasty finish of ripe fruit. Best served at 8°C.

Pairs with shellfish, crustaceans and grilled white fish or fish stews, and also with rice dishes, soft and blue cheeses, all kinds of mushrooms, and fresh fruit.

Montebuena Blanco is made from 80% Viura and 20% Tempranillo Blanco.

What truly sets Montebuena apart is its unique position where the Ebro river is closest to the Sierra Cantabria mountains, creating a blend of Mediterranean and Continental climates that prevents an excess of rain and extreme cold. In addition, the shallow, calcareous soil limits the yield of the harvest and the size of the grapes while increasing the volume of the skins, resulting in deeper color and a greater concentration of flavor.

Montebuena Blanco is straw yellow colored, translucent with greyish hues at the edges. Dominant white fruit aromas of apple and ripe banana on the nose with citrus notes in the background. Fresh and intense on the palate, although the acidity gradually smoothes out as the wine passes through the mouth and gives way to sweetness combined with a slightly bitter note and silky feel that balances the first sensation.

Fresh salads and vegetables, grilled fish, young cheeses, seafood and shellfish.

Palacio del Burgo Rioja Blanco is made from 100% Viura.

The wine shows a brilliant pale yellow color. The nose is elegant and very fruity, with straw and pineapple notes. The taste is intense, being extremely fruity with fresh balanced acidity.
Palacio del Burgo White Wine has been created to accompany all kinds of meals and be the perfect glass of wine to illuminate those memorable low light encounters. This wine is the product of the winemaker's efforts to highlight the fruit. The structure and mouth feel of the wine compliment and balance the fruit.

Enjoy it with white fish dishes and seafood.
