LUBERRI ZURRI 2023 Rioja Bianco

Rioja Bianco? You heard it right! This rare white Rioja is 80% Viura and 20% Malvasia.  The Malvasia adds a ton of aromatics to the Viura - a grape usually used in Cava production. Crisp and substantive, this dry wine is medium bodied and slightly creamy. Round and balanced, its fruity notes are matched by a minerality that has us reaching for this bottle during oyster season.

    WINEMAKING

    The Syrah and Viognier ripened together in 2019, so the two grapes were harvested the same day, de-stemmed, then cold soaked together, retaining the bright berry flavors and stabilizing the color. The wine was aged for 18 months in French oak barrels.

  • Vineyard History

    Located eleven miles West of Montevideo on the Atlantic Ocean, our estate has more than 1,000 small vineyard blocks covering it's hillside slopes, which benefit from varying microclimates, different levels of humidity, and an intense canopy management. Theses factors allow the vines to develop with the maximum exposure to the sun providing rich, expressive fruit. The vineyards are surrounded by lush forests, rocky soils, granite boulders, and naturally occurring palm trees.

  • Tasting Notes

    Syrah is a deep purple wine with rich aromas of plum, violets, black cherry, vanilla, oak and blackberry. The vintage is a classic with flavors of blackberry jam, black cherry, plum, white pepper and vanilla. In a nod to its Rhône heritage, our Syrah has a slightly “meaty” quality along with the classic floral notes and a dry structured finish.
