Finca Vidales Rioja Blanco 2019
About the wine
Summer-perfect Rioja Blanco from Gorka
- Gorka is the genius behind some of our top-rated, sell-out red Riojas. A modest guy...with very little to be modest about. After all how many winemakers his age have managed to win 90 points from the world's most influential wine critic, Robert Parker.
- Despite being renowned for producing some of the world's best reds, Rioja also provides the perfect conditions for fresh, crisp and classy whites thanks to that hot Spanish sunshine.
- Rioja Blanco is the perfect summer sipper, think fruit salad with a delicious apple-y finish. Perfect with a nice seafood pasta al-fresco, yum.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Gorka Etxebarria
- He's a gentle, modest young guy with very little to be modest about. After all how many winemakers his age have managed to win 90 points from the world's most influential wine critic, Robert Parker
- Burgo Viejo is owned by 6 families of farmers, not winemakers or salesmen. They used to simply sell their grapes and never see the true products of their labours. Then Gorka came to save the day and showed them exactly how good their grapes were!
- His second love is head banging guitar...and having tasted his wines, and heard his music, we should all be grateful that wine is his first love! Save everyone's ear drums, support this winemaker in his fantastic contribution to Spanish wines.
