Rio Anejo Macabeo / Chardonnay 2018

Wine Writer

This wine is top value drinking from Spain. It’s dry, fresh and medium bodied with roundness from the Chardonnay blended with Macabeo, one of Spain’s most planted white grape varieties. It’s a lovely, lively wine for lunch time on a sunny day. – 3.5 Stars, Joelle Thomson, Wine Writer

When national meets international. The winemakers at Rio Anejo have blended Macabeo, one of Spain’s most planted white grapes with internationally planted Chardonnay to create this dry, fresh and well-rounded drop. If your having seafood then this is the wine for you, pale yellow in the glass it’s the green apple that first hits you when you open the bottle. As it opens more notes of citrus and white flowers come to the forefront. Its great to open over a long leisurely lunch so stock up for summer! – Wine Central Tasting Panel

A medium dry wine that is fresh on the palate with a well rounded flavour. Perfect with roast chicken.
