Conde Valdemar Rioja Blanco

Deliciously ripe and fresh, that's what this Conde de Valdemar white wine is all about. The flagship of the range is the Conde Valdemar Blanco—an elegant, fruity white wine made from the Viura (85 percent) and Verdejo (15 percent) grape varieties. Two refreshing grapes that pair beautifully. You can smell this immediately upon opening the bottle, with its delightful, vibrant aroma of citrus, passion fruit, and green apple. A truly beautiful and inviting aroma.

Characteristic Valdemar wines

Bodegas Valdemar is a family-owned winery whose origins date back to 1889. The current owner, Jesus Martinez Bujanda, who runs the winery with his children, Ana and Carlos, began construction of the current cellars in 1982. Their modern facilities and innovative winemaking methods have been key features of the winery from the very beginning and enable the production of noble, distinctive wines of the highest caliber. Bodegas Valdemar wines are made exclusively from grapes grown on their own vineyards and are characterized by the velvety aromas typical of the Rioja region. The elegant Conde Valdemar Blanco Rioja from Spain is a cuvée made from Sauvignon Blanc, Tempranillo Blanco, Verdejo, and Viura grape varieties. After harvest, the grapes reach the press as soon as possible. Here, they are selected and carefully crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures of around 16 degrees Celsius. Fermentation is followed by aging on the lees for several months before the wine is finally strained.

Enjoy the light Rioja Blanco

The light-footed Rioja Blanco is a pale yellow in the glass. This white wine has aromas of lime, grapefruit, lilac, and jasmine. As if that weren't enough, the stainless steel finish also adds vanilla, oriental spices, and cocoa beans. The palate is round and supple. The texture is wonderfully light and fresh on the palate. Ultimately, this white wine from the La Rioja wine region impresses with its considerable length. Hints of orange and lemon are again evident.
