About this wine

Olagar Blanco Gran Reserva 2017 is one of the most extraordinary white wines of Spain, an uncompromising expression of Rioja’s forgotten white grandeur, interpreted through Remírez de Ganuza’s legendary precision. Produced only in tiny quantities from very old vines, this is a white wine conceived with the structure, discipline and longevity of a great red.

The wine opens with layered aromas of ripe pear, quince and baked apple, interwoven with saffron, almond, fine smoke and subtle toasted wood. On the palate, it is powerful yet sculpted, combining rich extract with vibrant acidity and profound mineral tension. Long, saline and quietly authoritative, this is a white Rioja for serious collectors. Built to evolve for decades.

Tasting Note

Bright gold in the glass, Olagar Blanco 2017 reveals an intensely layered nose of baked apple, quince, pear skin and lemon oil, wrapped in notes of toasted almond, saffron, vanilla bean and delicate smoke. On the palate, it is broad, powerful and impeccably structured, with rich glyceric texture balanced by firm, driving acidity. Flavors of citrus peel, orchard fruit, spice and wet stone unfold slowly, finishing long, saline and profoundly mineral. A white wine of true authority and rare longevity.
