  Vraiment très bien, assez alcoolique mais plein de saveurs et de notes cirées et minérales. Long.

  White pepper, orange peel, some quince
  Big mouthful. Lots of texture, opulent, good laser-like acidity.
  We’ve reached another level in terms if finesse despite the 60 day maceration on skins.
  Tasted 3 times already. One of the finest vintage of Phinca Hapa blanco.
  This will live a long long time. Drink now - 2035

  Medium amber color. Pleasant phenolic texture. Different from other Rioja Viuras I’ve experienced with this age and price point. In a black glass, I might wonder if it was a light red. Either way, very nice.

  Whole cluster in concrete with native yeast, 2,00 foudre for one year. Salty and mineral on the palate. So salty and mineral and wonderful. God damn this is compelling wine.
