The white wine Baigorri Fermentado en Barrica Blanco Rioja DOCa, vintage 2014 from the winery Bodegas Baigorri has been rated in 2016 by Ulrich Sautter with 89 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Macabeo, Malvasia from the region Rioja Alavesa in Spain.
Viura, Malvasia. Unconventional aroma, almost vegetable-like, fennel, mild and slightly viscous on the palate, clear wood presence, aromatically rather restrained here, creaminess and mild acidity give the wine a more opulent appearance than the alcohol content (12.5% by volume) would lead one to expect. The amalgam of alcohol and fullness is quite interesting, even if the wine remains difficult to grasp aromatically.
