Murua Blanco Fermentado en Barrica 2019 is a wine that boasts the acidity of both great vintages and white wines from Burgundy. Clean and very bright with golden hues. Lemon-yellow colour.
The first sensations offer a truly oral explosion, intense and very persistent. The fresh citrus aromas come together with the oral notes from the countryside in Álava: Rosemary, thyme, acacia, but also a slight touch of pastries and butter form the barrel. The wine continues to evolve and gain complexity.
The attack is intense and fresh. The mid-palate reflects good personality, intensity and volume. We can detect a bit of green pear, a pleasant herbal touch, mint, chamomile and more aromas that mingle with the elegant oak fragrances.
