Cune 2021 Monopole White
92 Points James Suckling, 91 Pts Wine Enthusiast

This wildly complex white wine is made from the native grape Viura. It’s a fantastic example of how good White Rioja can be at a very affordable price. It’s not every day we find white wines of this quality at this price point so stock up.

“This has aromas of sliced pears, green tea, apples, fennel and lemons. Medium-bodied, crisp and clean. Crunchy stone fruit with a subtle herbal note. Refreshing.” – James Suckling

100% Viura

Monopole White Rioja is made from 100% viura grapes. Gentle pressing encouraged the release of free-run juice which was then fermented in stainless steel vats at controlled temperature, so facilitating the extraction and conservation of key primary fruit and floral aromas typical of the variety.

Bright pale yellow in colour with green hints at the rim. The nose shows aromas reminiscent of spring flowers and white fruits such as pear, apple and white currant. The palate is silky and pleasing due to the perfect balance between structure and acidity. The finish is long, fresh and youthful, providing a white that is a perfect match with fish, seafood and fish-based rice dishes.
