Bodegas Ontanon Akemi Rioja Blanco 2014

Felix Jimenez produces a classic style white Rioja where the wine has been lightly aged in French oak barrels for 4 months.  The wine is dry with an attractive warm richness.  Deliciously intense without being over-powering.

This wine is a treat for those not familiar with traditional white Rioja.  A blanquette of rabbit comes to mind instantly.
