We just received the first bottles of the
new white wine made by
Bodegas Sierra Cantabria: the Otoman 2015.
The
Sierra Cantabria Otoman, whose name refers to the silky fabric from Turkey, is a white wine from
Rioja produced with grapes Sauvignon Blanc (65%), Viura (Macabeo) (20%) and Malvasia (15%), with fermentation in barrels of French oak from only one wine.
It is a
fresh wine, which expresses perfectly the personality of the terroir to which it belongs: the Sonsierra (Rioja).
With this wine, the
family Eguren completes a series of silky white wines, in this case very fresh and cheerful, of a very high quality, and true to the
philosophy of the Bodega: absolute respect for the diversity and the richness of its own terroir, so as to obtain wines that excel and distinguish them from others.
Even if the price of 9-10 euros for a white wine may seem high,
we would buy and enjoy it in any case, and if possible, in good company!
