White Wine Prieto Pariente Viognier 2021
Availability: In stock
This is the new vintage of the white wine Prieto Pariente Viognier from bodega Prieto Pariente, founded by the third generation of the well-known José Pariente family from Rueda.
A varietal Viognier, this Spanish white wine is made from low-yielding, certified organic vines grown in a very special plot - a tiny island amidst a sea of Verdejo vineyards.
Farmed following environmentally friendly practices, the grapes were harvested by hand and brought to the cellar in little boxes. Gently crushed, they were first fermented in trunk-cone shaped stainless steel tanks, concrete diposits and 500-litre French oak barrels.
After that, the wine Prieto Pariente Viognier 2021 was aged for 6 months in those same containers.
Pair this white wine from Castilla y León with rice dishes, white meat recipes and creamy cheeses.
