‘A perennial favourite of mine for its diversity of food pairing. The Viura 2021 is a beautiful expression of varietal. A bouquet of white flowers opens up to freshly sliced ripe green apple, pear skin and white nectarine. The palate shows good concentration with exotic spice on the finish’ – Kenny Nassen, January 2024
‘The wine has a lemon colour with primary fruit aromas of apple, pear, lime and peach. Some secondary aromas are present from the ageing for one year in large oak barrels on the lees. It has a medium palate, acid and alcohol with a persistent finish.’ – Winemaker

| Producer information | Former Young Gun, Bryan MacRobert, moved to Rioja 7 years ago to start Laventura. Today, his new terroir-driven wines are causing a fuss! ‘I want to make Rioja as it once was. I’m trying to make honest wines,’ says Bryan whose wines are refreshing, innovative and true-to-terroir style of Rioja. With cellars located in the centre of La Rioja, they source high-quality grapes from the whole region. The vineyards are often 40 to 90 years old and harvesting is done by hand. ‘It’s time to take Rioja far more seriously,’ writes Tim Atkin MW as the Rioja landscape changes dramatically. |
