The Wine

Country of origin:

Spain

Region:

Rioja

Better known for red wine, Rioja also has the ability to produce world class white. Particularly from its premium sub-region, Alavesa. Its altitude keeps the temperature fresh and the Viura vines are trained to produce smaller bunches with more concentration, resulting in complex citrus and spice aromatics and superb intensity and length on the palate, delivered with subtlety and elegance.

The Winemaker

Fidel Fernández Góme
Winemaker:

Fidel Fernández Góme

Bodegas Amaren is a project created by Rioja top dog, Luis Canas, to producer wines with maximum expression of the grape variety in honour of his mother, Angeles. The wines are made from fruit grown in challenging conditions, and in their struggle toward ripeness they pick up the full potential of aroma and flavour that the variety is capable of.

"Straw-yellow in colour. High aromatic intensity, blended nuances of syrup fruit and cake. In the mouth it is smooth and rounded, with a high complexity of citric flavours (lemon peel), hints of pineapple, pipe tobacco and aromatic plants with a mineral and extremely elegant finish." - Fidel Fernández Góme, Winemaker.

Customer ratings

A lot of body, well balanced with plenty of depth but note 14% though definitely not headache fodder

This has so far been our favourite wine from our Christmas order. It is a perfect white to accompany cheese. It has incredible length. Very easily drunk, worth the expense.

Will order more, a really flavoursome Rioja

I normally love both white Rioja and Oaky wines but this was just too overpowering and on the unpleasant side.
