Palacio del Camino Real, Rioja Blanco 2023

Get to know: Palacio del Camino Real Rioja Blanco

A lively and expressive Spanish white wine from the renowned Rioja region.

Tasting Note

Palacio del Camino Real Rioja Blanco is a vibrant style that balances zesty citrus fruit with a gentle touch of oak. Crafted from the region’s classic Viura grape, it’s a modern take on traditional white Rioja – fresh, smooth, and effortlessly drinkable. Pale lemon in colour with aromas of citrus zest, ripe pear, honeydew melon, and a soft vanilla note from brief oak ageing. On the palate, this is smooth and dry with bright orchard fruit, a hint of creaminess, and a clean, refreshing finish that keeps you reaching for another glass.

Top food pairings:

  • Zingy Vietnamese noodle salad
  • Lightly grilled white fish or seafood stew
  • Soft cheeses such as goat’s cheese or brie
Kate Says

"Wines of the Spanish Rioja region are known for their use of oak ageing. Here though, just a short spell in barrel gives extra depth without masking the fruit. It’s a brilliant chardonnay alternative – bright, smooth, and versatile."
