The wine
Rita is the new white wine from Vinyes Domènech, and has been named after Joan Ignasi's wife, Rita, who is very much involved in every production process for all the wines made by this family-run bodega.
Displaying aromas of white fruit and well-integrated, subtle notes from oak-ageing, this coupage of Garnacha Blanca (60%) and Macabeo is decidedly unctuous, with balsamic and mineral notes, and particularly fresh and pleasant on the palate, including a slightly bitter touch on the finish.
NOTE: The production run for this wine is a mere 700-800 bottles.
Matured for 4 months in French oak barrels.
