Añares Terranova Sauvignon Blanc

The White Wine Añares Terranova from Grupo Bodegas Olarra presents us with this White Wine from D.O Rueda (Spain) made with the Sauvignon Blanc grape variety.- Sauvignon Blanc grape variety: Originally from France, this variety adapts perfectly to the high lands and continental climate of the Rueda region. The vineyard it comes from is in Medina del Campo at over 700 m altitude. Planted in shallow soils, with a top layer formed by pebbles and fine clays that help retain water and obtain wines with more structure than is usual in the area. Below those surface clays, they are poor soils, with sands and gravels that help obtain elegant wines from small grains of great aromatic concentration.- Winemaking: The harvest, carried out at night, was conducted with strict sanitary criteria and rigorous monitoring of maturation. After pressing, the musts fermented at temperatures between 14 and 16°C for about twelve days, in order to respect the aromatic typicity and characteristic smoothness of Sauvignon blanc to the maximum. After aging on lees, the wine was clarified and stabilized for bottling. Bodegas Olarra The origins of this winery come from a building, a work by Juan Antonio Ridruejo in 1973, designed and conceived for wine. The most emblematic feature is its roof that crowns the barrel room, which consists of 11 hexagonal domes that help avoid sudden temperature changes. This design was intended to be transmitted to the wines and in the way of making wines, as in Añares, where they seek a wine that adapts and evolves to stay in trend over time. To become emblems of true Rioja wine. For the Añares line, there are not only red wines, but also whites, rosés and special vintages. This positions Bodegas Olarra as one of the emblematic wineries in the area that has remained a reference for Rioja wine, adaptable and has known how to continue over time.
