Roda Rioja 'Roda I Blanco' DOCa 2021
Vintage Character
2021 Bodegas Roda Rioja "Roda I Blanco" DOCa is an icon-level white from Rioja DOCa, built from Viura, Malvasía de Rioja and Garnacha Blanca. The 2021 growing season in Rioja delivered healthy fruit and fine natural balance, giving this vintage a strong combination of concentration and freshness that suits age-worthy white Rioja particularly well. Its distinctive character comes from selected old-vine parcels shaped by Rioja’s Atlantic-Mediterranean crossroads, where calcareous-clay soils and marked day-night shifts help preserve tension, aromatic lift and a saline, stony edge beneath the fruit.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
The nose layers citrus peel, white peach and golden apple with jasmine, raw almond and discreet toast, then opens further into brioche and wet-stone notes. On the palate it is dry, textured and energetic, with high acidity carrying a medium-full body, a creamy lees-polished mid-palate and a long, precise finish marked by mineral persistence and subtle oak spice. This is a white of breadth without heaviness, and it pairs beautifully with turbot in beurre blanc, herb-roast chicken, or grilled pork tenderloin with apple and fennel.
Winery Background
Founded in 1987 in Haro’s historic Barrio de la Estación, Bodegas Roda became a benchmark for modern Rioja through rigorous parcel selection, old-vine sourcing and a philosophy centered on expressing the character of each vintage. The estate is widely associated with sustainable vineyard work and meticulous hand-led selection in the vineyard and cellar. For Roda I Blanco, the aim is not simple fruitiness but layered complexity and longevity, achieved through precise élevage with French oak and lees contact, giving the wine both aromatic refinement and structural depth.
