Posada del Rey Blanco NV

We've worked with Javier Murúa and his father, Julián, for some years now and have always been impressed with the wines they produce at their Bodegas Real Compañía de Vinos cellar in Rioja. Thanks to his easy charm, Javier also has a talent for finding outstanding parcels of grapes or wine that ‘need a home’ – not just from Rioja, but from all over Spain. And it's these select parcels that go into their Posada del Rey Blanco. This 2019 combines the zesty lime flavours of Rueda’s Verdejo with the melon and honeysuckle aromas of La Mancha’s Viura, and a touch of creamy richness from Rioja’s Malvasia. Lovely on its own, you’ll find it great, too, with Spanish style marinated sardines and other tapas dishes, lemon chicken or sauced fish.
