Bodegas Franco-Españolas 2006 Diamante Semi-Sweet Malvasia-Viura White (Rioja)

Country: Spain / Diamante Semi-Sweet Malvasia-Viura
Variety: White Blend Northern Spain
Winery: Bodegas Franco-Españolas / Rioja

This semisweet blend of Malvasia and Viura is not everyday stuff, but if you have a taste for something sweet and different, give it a try. The nose is floral and waxy, while flavors of honey and ultraripe pineapple are heady and sugary. Not a drop-dead winner but unique and interesting.
