Edra Blancoluz 2023
Details
Edra Blancoluz 2023
One of the scarce Spanish white wines produced solely from Viognier, the wine Edra Blancoluz is sourced from vines grown in the rugged land of Aragón.
Produced by Bodegas Edra, the grapes were meticulously harvested and cold-soaked before alcoholic fermentation.
Once both processes were completed, 6% of the wine underwent malolactic fermentation in oak barrels and was aged on its lees with periodic pump-overs. The rest of this white wine from Aragón was aged on its lees in stainless steel tanks.
Finally, the two wines were blended, resulting in the wine Edra Blancoluz 2023.
Pair with creamy cheeses and shrimp.
Since the Designation Vino de la Tierra Ribera del Gállego has not yet included Viognier in the list of approved varieties, this wine is sold under the label Vino de Mesa de la Tierra de Aragón.

| Nose | Quite elegant, this Viognier white wine exhibits some sotes of white fruit, tropical fruit and citrus, alongside white flowers, aromatic herbs, dim spicy notions and aromas of toast and dry fruit. |
| Palate | Bold and complex, this white wine from Bodega Edra has a smooth body and a yummy character. Remembrances of honey, pinepple, spices, citrus aromatic herbs, jasmine and white roses. Fresh acidity and medium-long finish. |
| Our personal opinion | A nicely crafted Viognier, the wine Edra Blancoluz 2023 is rather pleasurable. |
