Profile & Story

Capitán Fanegas is Mario Ruiz-Clavijo's personal micro-project inside his family's Bodegas Marques de Arviza in Rioja. De La Union Blanco comes from two estate vineyards at 650m elevation and blends 70% Viura, 20% Malvasia Bianca and 10% Garnacha Blanca, fermented in stainless steel then aged 6 months in oak with weekly batonnage, followed by 4 months in concrete.

Tasting Notes

Wild flowers, tropical fruit and honeysuckle on the nose with discreet oak spice; a richly textured palate of fleshy fruit, beeswax and confit lemon balanced by lithe acidity.
