Description:
The Conde de los Andes winery is the most impressive underground structure in La Rioja, due to its age, its architecture and its extension of nearly a kilometre and a half.
Created by man centuries ago, it treasures within it hundreds of thousands of vintages and, in turn, years of wisdom and care in the elaboration of its most representative range that celebrates the present and looks back at history.
This wine is produced from 30 year old Viura vines from their Ollauri Haro Briñas vineyard. The wine is fermented and aged in oak barrels before bottling and rested for a year before release.
Tasting Note:
Complex and balanced, with fresh notes of citrus fruits and more sumptuous notes of white flowers, vanilla and toasted touches from oak maturation.
Food Matches: Paellas and seafood rice dishes. Seafood-style pasta dishes.
