2020 Solarce Rioja Blanco (750ml) presents a bright, approachable white from the Rioja region, reflecting the 2020 harvest in every glass. With a refreshing profile and clean finish, it’s a versatile choice for everyday dining and relaxed gatherings.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Pale straw with a light, clear brilliance.
  • Aroma: Fresh citrus zest, green apple, and subtle white blossom, lifted by a gentle mineral backdrop.
  • Palate: Crisp acidity and a light-to-medium body deliver flavors of lemon, pear, and greener apples, underscored by a fresh mineral edge.
  • Finish: Clean and quick, with a lingering citrus whisper that invites the next sip.

Food pairings

  • Shellfish and grilled white seafood (shrimp, scallops, white fish).
  • Light pasta dishes with olive oil, lemon, or herbs.
  • Fresh goat cheese or soft cheeses and bright salads with citrus vinaigrette.
  • Simple poultry dishes, especially those with lemon or herb accents.

Serving suggestions

Best enjoyed chilled at approximately 7–10°C (45–50°F). Pair with warm-weather meals or create a refreshing aperitif for a coastal-inspired menu.

"The dry white 2021 Monopole is a wine that has been produced since 1915, the oldest brand for white wine in Spain. It's classical with varietal character, young and fresh. The grapes, mostly Viura, were picked between September 21st and October 19th, and the wine achieved 13% alcohol, keeping a pH of 3.3 after fermenting in stainless steel, without using any oak, to keep the primary, fruit and floral characteristics of the grape. They consider 2021 a very good year for whites, with good freshness, but more heterogeneous, and Víctor Urrutia, CVNE's CEO, favors 2020 against 2021. It's primary, clean and fresh, with a tasty salty twist. Among the finest Monopole of recent years. 300,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2022."
