Bhilar, Phinca La Revilla Blanco 2014

DOC Rioja, Spain

A rare single-vineyard wine from a small vineyard, planted in 1925 on limestone-clay soil and still farmed according to biodynamic principles. La Revilla combines depth and tradition with a remarkable freshness. The wine displays refined aromas of ripe red fruit, spicy notes, and a mineral undertone, with an elegant structure and a long, lively finish. Excellent with lamb, game, grilled vegetable dishes, or mature cheeses. A wine with character and aging potential, yet also wonderful to enjoy now.
