BODEGA CONTADOR 'Predicator' 2014

The 2014 'Predicator' Blanco Rioja is a great release from Bodega Contador. This wine was sourced from ten vineyards within San Vicente and Briones and was aged 8 months in 30% new oak prior to bottling. The final blending was 49% Viura, 40% Garnacha Blanco and 11% Malvasia. This Blanco has aromas of green olive, roasted hazelnut, honeydew melon and hints of basil. There are flavors of cantaloupe, Marcona almond, green olive and a lithe minerality alongside a nice saline component. This leads to the long, 30 second finish. Lovely balance to this excellent and intriguing Blanco blend that will cellar nicely. (Best 2016-2026) - April, 2016 (OB)
