Bodegas Faustino 2007 Faustino V Viura (Rioja)

Country: Spain / Faustino V
Variety: Viura Northern Spain
Winery: Bodegas Faustino / Rioja

Dry and clean, with straw, hay and other cava-like aromas. Take away the bubbles and this Viura is indeed like cava, so expect green apple, citrus and other crisp, lemony flavors. As varietal Viura from Rioja goes, Faustino has crafted a wine that’s well above average and mildly complex.
