Nivarius Limited Edition: A Celebration of Rioja’s Unique Terroir and Native Varieties

Introducing the Nivarius Limited Edition, a distinguished white wine that embodies the innovative spirit and dedication to quality of Nivarius Bodega, nestled in the heart of Spain’s prestigious Rioja region. This exquisite wine is a testament to the bodega’s commitment to showcasing native grape varieties, crafted from an exceptional blend of white Maturana and Viura. These varieties, vinified separately, are cultivated at an altitude of 800 meters, where the cooler climate and unique soil composition contribute to the grapes’ distinct flavor profile and complexity.

The Nivarius Limited Edition is a masterpiece of winemaking, fermented in barrels to enhance its aromatic richness and textural depth. This method, coupled with a meticulous 9-month aging process on lees, imbues the wine with a marked structure and volume, ensuring its capacity for aging while maintaining a lively freshness. The lees aging not only enriches the wine’s body but also adds layers of complexity, resulting in a wine that is both robust and elegantly nuanced.

Upon tasting, the Nivarius Limited Edition reveals a harmonious balance of freshness and intensity. The palate is greeted with a vibrant array of fruity flavors, where notes of crisp apple, pear, and citrus zest blend seamlessly with subtle hints of toasted almond and vanilla, a reflection of its barrel fermentation and lees aging. The wine’s remarkable freshness is complemented by a creamy texture and a structured backbone, leading to a long, satisfying finish that echoes its layered complexity.

Visually, the wine captivates with a bright, straw-yellow hue, hinting at the richness and vitality contained within. The nose is equally alluring, offering a bouquet of fresh fruit aromas intertwined with delicate floral undertones and a touch of minerality, inviting the taster to delve deeper into its intricacies.

The Nivarius Limited Edition is a versatile companion to a wide range of culinary delights. Its structured yet fresh profile makes it an ideal pairing for seafood dishes, creamy pastas, and poultry, as well as a delightful accompaniment to cheese boards and light appetizers. It is also a wine that can be savored on its own, offering a moment of reflection and enjoyment.

From the Nivarius Bodega comes a wine that not only highlights the potential of Rioja’s native white grape varieties but also exemplifies the region’s capacity for producing exceptional white wines. The Nivarius Limited Edition is a celebration of innovation, tradition, and the unique terroir of Rioja, inviting wine lovers to explore the nuanced and expressive character of white Maturana and Viura. Add this limited edition wine to your collection and experience the elegance and depth of Rioja’s white winemaking heritage.
