Priorat, Montsant and Rioja; 9/5/2014-9/18/2014: From 75cl, P+P in a restaurant near Gratallops. The scent reminded me of a Roussane/Viogner blend, but no, this is Viura (Macabeu)/Grenache Blanc. Surprisingly "clean" (even neutral-tasting) for a white of such weight (chubby 14,5% alc.). It would be interesting to follow this over 2-3 years to see what happens to the Galia melon taste (and the lubricated ripe-melon-like texture) on the mid-palate. 87-88P
