Vino Blanco Marqués de Cáceres
White Wine Marqués de Cáceres from D.O. La Rioja. Made with type of Viura grape. It is a Young wine from Bodegas Marqués de Cáceres, obtained from parcels of old vineyards located in La Rioja Alta.
Age: Joven.
Winery: Bodegas Marqués de Caceres
Tasting note for White Wine Marqués de Cáceres:
Straw yellow colour, very bright and clean, it is agile and fluid cup.
The nose is somewhat shy, but the Viura is not a very expressive variety. Even so, we find aromas of white fruit (apricot), grapefruit and freshly cut grass. The sensation of freshness on the nose is clear.
Freschness is also repeated in the mouth, from the attack to the end, thanks to its citric acidity. It has a slightly bitter note at the end of mouth very elegant. A direct wine and easy to drink.
Optimum service temperature: 10°-12° C.
A pairing: Ceviche de lubina.

Marqués de Cáceres follows the line of the wines of great typicity inheritance of the bordeleses who came to settle in Rioja in search of good grapes for their wines after the epidemic of the phylloxera that ravaged the French vineyard.However, a century ago (and less) the majority of the Rioja vineyard was white grape. The Forner Family, with a French feeling, now with Cristina Forner at the helm, continues to innovate to stay among the best valued and most recognized by the consumer wineries.
And it happened that in 1939 after the end of the Civil War, the country was an absolute chaos, there were problems to hire grape pickers and some grapes remained in the vineyard until November, developing some of them "noble rot", that is to say, were infected by a fungus called botrytis. With sweet and concentrated grapes of the Viura variety (although it could also be a minority of Malvasía or Garnacha Blanca) they began to make sweet and semi-sweet wines.
