Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: medium-bodied, low tannin, medium acidity, dry
This barrel-fermented Macabeo from Bai Gorri offers a richer, creamier take on white Rioja, with the oak lending vanilla and toasted nut notes alongside ripe orchard fruit and citrus. Fermentation in barrel gives it a rounder texture and subtle savoury complexity compared to a simple stainless-steel white. It's a versatile, food-friendly white with enough weight to handle richer dishes.
