Description

The world of wine is full of the ebbs and flows of life, a recurrent pattern of coming and going or decline and regrowth. International varieties ruled for many years and now there is a return to native varieties and the more unique the better. Nivarius, is made from Tempranillo Blanco, a variety that was near extinction. Thanks to the Palacios team's care and dedication, this indigenous grape variety of Rioja is being made into wine again. It’s the only winery known to specialise and produce solely White Rioja, and this is relatively new to our shelves at Fine Wine, don’t miss out…

Smells

rich, warm aromas of hazelnuts, almonds, marzipan, and Golden Queen peaches with hints of vanilla and spice.

Tastes

the rich, creamy, oily, mid-palate weight and texture are striking, adding an unctuous quality to the wine, and making it irresistible. The wine has a voluminous nature finishing with a fine, piquant, Gin & Tonic like finish, all balanced by the peaches and cream flavours and the saline, salty acidity. Superb drinking now through 2027 with your favourite white meats.

We taste, rate & guarantee every wine we sell.
