Tasting Notes
Muriel Blanco Rioja 2024 presents a bright pale-yellow hue with subtle greenish reflections. On the nose, it is intense and fresh, offering a vibrant bouquet of floral and fruity aromas, including white pear, apple, lemon, lime, and other citrus fruits. The palate is juicy and flavorful, with a harmonious acidity that adds structure and liveliness. The finish is fresh and persistent, leaving a full and pleasant taste that lingers beautifully.
Vineyards
The vineyards are in the ‘Viñas en Briñas’ area, between the municipalities of Briñas (Rioja Alta) and Labastida (Rioja Alavesa). The climate is Mediterranean, with quite a strong Atlantic influence. In terms of health, the grapes are in perfect condition. The soils are clay-limestone, with an optimal degree of acidity that enhances the expression of lively aromas.
Winemaking
The grapes were hand-harvested at the beginning of September. After harvest, the grapes were gently pressed and macerated for 3 hours on the skins to achieve a high intensity of aromas. Most of the wine was fermented in stainless steel vats under temperature control to enhance the aromas and freshness. A small percentage fermented in French oak barrels.
