Suañé Reserva Blanco 2020
Descripción
El nombre de este refinado y delicado blanco es la transformación fonética del francés 'soigne' y significa eso mismo: refinado, delicado. Es el resultado de la la máxima calidad de las uvas y de la filosofía de mínima intervención de Alonso & Pedrajo. Un coupage elegantísimo de Viura y Sauvignon blanc muy persistente y redondo que encandila con su frescura.

Opinión de los críticos
Javier Alonso and Alberto Pedrajo make this unusual white with old-vine Viura and recently planted Sauvignon Blanc from three sites in Villalba and Haro. Fermented on skins for 15 days, it has a nutty, salty tang from partial ageing under flor, lots of colour and a palate of citrus, sourdough bread and crème brûlée. 2026-31
The dark golden 2020 Suañé Blanco Reserva has notes of caramel and honey, more oxidative than reductive this time. It's a blend of 80% old Viura and 20% young Sauvignon Blanc that fermented with 15 days of skin contact and aged in used 228-liter oak barrels for 12 months and a further seven months in concrete eggs with the lees. It's tasty and spicy and has a chalky, dry texture. It comes in at 13.5% alcohol, with a pH of 3.25. The palate shows better, fresher that what you expect from the nose, with a tasty and almost salty twist in the finish. 6,498 bottles produced. It was bottled June 2022.

Un gran blanco de Rioja. Muy intenso, largo y complejo, con la madera bien integrada.
Espectacular
