Bodega Gómez Cruzado, 2023

Rioja Blanco ‘Montes Obarenes’ 2023

Rioja Blanco ‘Montes Obarenes’ 2023

Uit een hooggelegen wijngaard tegen de bergketen Montes Obarenes aan, waar hoofdzakelijk zeer oude ‘bushvines’ viura staan. Deze intense wijn is gerijpt op de fijne gistresten: 80% in nieuw Frans eiken en 20% in beton. Grote witte wijn: complexe geuren en smaken van rijp wit-, steen-, en exotisch fruit, luxe specerijen en iets kruidigs. Een fluwelen textuur, en een indrukwekkende balans in de afdronk van rijp fruit, mineraliteit, ziltigheid en frisheid.

Meer over Bodega Gómez Cruzado

Goméz Cruzado, a boutique winery in Haro, Rioja Alta. A family business since 1886, now led by Juan. He was the winemaker for Telmo Rodriguez for over 25 years and joined Gomez Cruzado in 2022. A winemaker with an eye for tradition and, above all, a focus on the region's terroir for the respective grape variety. This ensures that the wines excel at every level; both the generic wines and the 'single vineyard' wines.

Gomez Cruzado is one of the oldest wineries in Rioja and is located in Haro, the capital of quality producers. Increasingly, GC is focusing on the vineyards and their associated terroir, and less on the years of aging in barrels. Exactly as it once was.

Traditionally, Goméz Cruzado is also renowned for its white Riojas. While many wineries consider making the blanco variant an extra, it is a true tradition here, and a significant portion of production (around 25%) is reserved for white wines.
