Beautifully balanced through to a long finish — 100% Tempranillo Blanco.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe producer\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBodegas Nivarius specialises in white wine from cool, high vineyards in Rioja and runs a heritage project reviving the region's rare white grapes; its name means 'snow-drift', after the winter blanket over its vines at Nalda. The Tempranillo Blanco grows at 550 to 700 metres in the Valle de Iregua and the hills of Moncalvillo and Clavijo, on deep ferrous and calcareous clays with sand, farmed without chemical sprays and hand-harvested. Winemaker Raúl Tamayo presses the grapes reductively and ferments spontaneously with wild yeasts in stainless steel, then ages the wine four months on fine lees with bâtonnage three times a week for extra weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFood and drinking\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGood with grilled fish, chicken in a creamy sauce, risotto or soft goat's cheese. Drink now and over the next two to three years; serve at 8-10°C, no decanting. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nivarius","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58464554942847,"sku":"HNW-5497225A","price":19.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/4192\/4998\/files\/HNW-5497225A.png?v=1789767217","url":"https:\/\/www.edkawines.com\/products\/2025-rioja-blanco-tempranillo-blanco-nivarius","provider":"Edka Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
