Barrel fermentation gives the palate a creamy, gently savoury texture, but the finish is fresh and mouthwatering rather than heavy — 100% Tempranillo Blanco.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe producer\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBodegas Ondarre was founded in 1985 and is the only winery in the town of Viana, overlooking the Rioja valley in Rioja Oriental. Tempranillo Blanco, a rare white mutation of Rioja's main red grape, comes from a handful of old, low-yielding bush-vine sites on slopes at 520 to 690 metres north of the Ebro, on shallow sand, gravel, clay and chalk over limestone, sheltered by the Sierra Cantabria. The must was fermented in new 225-litre French oak, then aged a further four months on fine lees in French and American barriques and acacia casks.

Drink now and over the next two to three years; serve at 9 to 11°C, not too cold, so the texture shows.
