Marqués de Cáceres 2007 Barrel Fermented White White (Rioja)

Country: Spain / Barrel Fermented White
Variety: White Blend Northern Spain
Winery: Marqués de Cáceres / Rioja

Pithy, heavy and chunky, with waxy fruit mixed with oak. The wine has a pretty good mouthfeel and balance, but it just doesn’t do much in terms of aromatics or in the flavor category. Decent for a barrel fermented Viura but nothing to write home about.
