The hand-harvested fruit ferments naturally with indigenous yeasts in large historic oak vats before spending 4 full years aging in neutral American oak barrels from the estate's own cooperage. The winemaking embraces gentle racking twice a year and a traditional fining with fresh egg whites prior to bottling without filtration. This is a singular, age-worthy white Rioja that balances waxy oxidation with chiseled acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA deep golden-yellow color in the glass leads into complex aromas of dried apple, honeycomb, chamomile, roasted almond, and a touch of flor-like yeastiness. The palate is rich and dry, unfolding layers of Meyer lemon preserve, dried pear, wax, and white pepper. High natural acidity cuts directly through the wine's oily, leesy texture, offering remarkable structural tension and drive. It concludes on a long, savory finish defined by lingering notes of salty stone, dried herbs, and toasted oak.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lopez de Heredia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50413952467184,"sku":"XM","price":88.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/3678\/4368\/files\/Comingsoon.png?v=1768455940","url":"https:\/\/www.lessismorewines.com\/products\/r-lopez-de-heredia-vina-tondonia-vina-gravonia-crianza-blanco-2017","provider":"LESS IS MORE WINES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
