Marques del Hueco Viura Blanco 2023, Rioja

Marqués del Hueco Viura Blanco Rioja 2023 is a fresh, elegant white wine made entirely from Viura, also known as Macabeo, one of Rioja’s classic white grape varieties. It combines the region’s long winemaking tradition with a bright, modern style, making it a versatile choice for contemporary white wine lovers.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a clear, intense straw-yellow color that immediately signals freshness and purity. The nose opens with white stone fruit such as apricot and peach, lifted by delicate notes of wildflowers. On the palate, the wine feels balanced and concentrated, with lively freshness and a subtle citrus finish that keeps it crisp and easy to enjoy. It is best enjoyed young for its vibrant fruit and aromatic lift, though it should hold well in the near term.

Production
Made from Viura grapes grown in La Rioja, Spain, this wine reflects the character of one of the country’s most important white-wine regions. Rioja’s continental influence and varied soils help preserve acidity and aromatics, giving the wine its clean, expressive style. The grapes are typically harvested with freshness in mind and vinified to maintain the varietal character, fruit purity, and aromatic delicacy.

Food & Serving
This wine is an excellent match for light starters, fish, shellfish, and other seafood dishes. Serve well chilled, ideally around 8–10°C, to highlight its freshness and citrus edge. Decanting is not necessary; simply open and pour.

Producer

While detailed background information is limited, the producer’s Viura Blanco reflects the enduring importance of Rioja as a benchmark region for both heritage and fresh, food-friendly white wines.
