Why You'll Love It
White Rioja with plenty of richness but no shortage of freshness. Pineapple and ripe apple sit alongside vanilla and gentle toast, while three months on the lees give it a soft, creamy texture. A really versatile wine for seafood, chicken or a bowl of pasta.
About The Producer
Bodegas Perica has been part of Rioja Alta since 1912, based in the village of San Asensio. Still family-owned after more than a century, the estate now farms over 150 hectares of vineyards, giving the team unusually close control over fruit selection and vineyard management. Its holdings include the La Olagosa vineyard, which lends its name to the classic Rioja range, and the officially recognised Viñedos Singulares of Finca Santa Julita and Finca Valdelascarretas. These carefully defined parcels demonstrate the family's ambition beyond traditional ageing categories, with old-vine Tempranillo and Viura showing the individual character of Rioja Alta's soils and slopes. Perica combines the region's familiar fruit and oak traditions with modern precision and parcel-by-parcel winemaking. From generously priced everyday Rioja to serious single-vineyard releases, it is an estate with genuine depth.
Winemaking Information
The winery's Olagosa Vendimia Seleccionada Blanco is made from 95% Viura and 5% Malvasía from the Viña Olagosa and Salmuera vineyards in San Asensio, Rioja Alta. Grapes are gently pressed after 24 hours of cold maceration. The must ferments in new French oak barrels and stays on its lees in barrel for at least three months. The producer lists 13% ABV for the cuvée; these are general producer specifications, not an independently verified 2023 technical sheet.
