Nivarius, Tempranillo Blanco, 2023

Nivarius Tempranillo Blanco from Palacios Vinos de Finca is a standout white wine from Rioja, crafted exclusively from the rare and indigenous Tempranillo Blanco grape. Sourced from high-altitude vineyards in Albelda de Iregua and Montes de Clavijo, situated between 550 and 700 meters above sea level, the grapes benefit from a cool climate that enhances their natural acidity and aromatic complexity.

This wine undergoes fermentation in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures to preserve its fresh aromas, followed by aging on fermentation lees for four months with regular stirring. The result is a straw-yellow wine with greenish reflections, offering vibrant citrus and stone fruit aromas, complemented by subtle floral and mineral notes. On the palate, it is fresh and well-balanced, with flavors of stone fruits and a long, elegant finish
