Macabeo

Macabeo, also known as Viura in Rioja, is an extremely important white grape variety in Spain, serving as one of the pillars for Cava production and structured white wines. It is characterized by delicate aromas of white flowers and stone fruit, which gain complexity and nutty notes when aged in oak. On the palate, Macabeo offers balanced acidity and a clean, refreshing profile. It is a versatile variety, capable of producing everything from vibrant sparkling wines to majestic aged whites, reflecting the diversity of Spanish winemaking tradition.
