This week we are talking about a very important Spanish white grape, Viura aka Macabeo. Though lesser known, Viura is a principal grape in Rioja white wines, as well as an addition to traditional Rioja reds. Or maybe you know it as Macabeo in your favorite Cava.
Allie brings us a fresh liter of Viura that would be welcome at any picnic. Julie gives you all the details about why this grape has different names and the diverse ways it is used in winemaking. We end with a discussion on wine trends and how what you drink can affect what wines are made. Listen in for all of the details. Grab a glass of your favorite Spanish white and join us! Cheers!
