Gatito Loco Organic Viura Garnacha Blanco 2022

This vibrant, fruit-driven wine flips the traditional image of Rioja on its head—placing the vineyard front and center and leaving behind outdated expectations. Every detail is crafted to challenge and surprise. Clean and crisp on the palate, it bursts with juicy stone fruit and ripe peach, layered with tropical notes of passion fruit and mango, all lifted by a zesty citrus edge. Don’t be fooled by its charm—this wine has bite. Expect a long, complex finish that lingers with elegance and intensity. Producer: Meaning “of height” or "of great respect", deAlto hints at the aspirations of the project and of the quality of what is in the bottle. deAlto craft wines in the best traditions of this classic region but fuse cutting-edge viticultural and winemaking techniques to create a modern interpretation of what they believe to be individual, pure expressions of the Rioja Baja vineyards that they call home. Food Pairing: A great idea to open a bottle of this to go with paella, or seafood dishes!
