Bodegas De La Riva SL, Macharnudo Dos Palmas, 2017

Bodegas De La Riva SL’s Macharnudo Dos Palmas 2017 is a distinctive white wine from one of Jerez’s most respected single vineyards, offering a refined expression of place and tradition. Crafted with the intensity and saline edge that make wines from Macharnudo so sought after, it reflects the precision and aging depth associated with classic Sherry-country winemaking.

Tasting Notes
Pale golden in the glass, it shows a bright, polished appearance that hints at its subtle development. The nose is layered and complex, with notes of citrus peel, chamomile, toasted almonds, sea breeze salinity, and gentle leesy richness. On the palate, it is dry, focused, and textural, balancing freshness with a savory, lightly nutty depth. Expect a long, mineral finish with impressive finesse and the kind of structure that allows the wine to evolve beautifully in bottle over time.

Production
Macharnudo is one of the most famous albariza vineyards in the Jerez area, known for its chalky, highly reflective soils that retain moisture and lend wines tension, lift, and salinity. The grapes are typically harvested by hand to preserve quality, then vinified with careful attention to expressing the character of the site rather than heavy cellar influence. The result is a wine shaped by terroir, with purity, precision, and a strong sense of place.

Food & Serving
This wine works beautifully with seafood, grilled fish, oysters, Iberian ham, roast poultry, and dishes with almonds or subtle cream sauces. Serve chilled, around 10–12°C, and consider a short decant if the wine is showing youthful reduction or if you want to open up its aromatic detail.

Producer
Bodegas De La Riva SL is part of the revival of traditional Jerez winemaking, with a focus on historic vineyards and site-driven wines. The producer has become notable for helping highlight the value of individual pagos and for bringing renewed attention to the character of Macharnudo, one of the region’s benchmark vineyard names.
