Finca Río Negro Gewürztraminer stands as one of the boldest, most surprising, and highly successful ventures in Spain's high-altitude viticulture. Born in Cogolludo, at the foothills of the Sierra de Ayllón mountains at nearly one thousand meters of altitude, this single-varietal white wine challenges the traditional standards of the grape thanks to a pristine terroir recognized with the exclusive DOP Vino de Pago status. The extreme altitude and demanding climate provide this Gewürztraminer with an unusual, vibrant crispness while keeping its fascinating floral and exotic character completely untouched. Aged on its fine lees for several months to build a rewarding volume and complexity, this white wine becomes an essential choice for wine lovers seeking a perfect harmony between seductive aromatics and structural elegance.
Tasting Note
In the glass, it displays a beautiful straw yellow color with brilliant, clean golden and greenish highlights that reflect its ultimate youth and excellent bottle evolution. The nose is a true sensory show, offering a high, captivating intensity that instantly unfolds a bouquet of lush floral notes reminiscent of white rose petals, jasmine, and orange blossom. Quickly, aromas of exotic and tropical fruits such as lychee, ripe pineapple, and juicy mango come forward, beautifully integrated with nuances of candied orange peel and an elegant spicy backdrop of ginger and white pepper. On the palate, it surprises from the very first sip with a rich, glyceric, and smooth entry, showcasing a volume that coats the mouth with great friendliness. Despite the suntuosity inherent to the variety, the wine maintains an impressive verticality thanks to a lively, crisp acidity born from the vineyard's extreme altitude, which masterfully prevents any cloying sensation. The mouthfeel is fluid and deeply savory, faithfully replicating the tropical fruits and sweet spice nuances found on the nose. The finish is remarkably long, elegant, and persistent, leaving a clean aftertaste marked by an aromatic memory of roses and a subtle mineral freshness that easily invites you to take another sip.
Groundbreaking Pairings
Pan-Seared Foie Gras with a Fig Jam and Ginger Reduction
While classic sweet wines can saturate the palate when paired with foie gras, the vertical acidity of this high-altitude Gewürztraminer cuts through the rich texture flawlessly. The wine's structural volume matches the dish's creaminess, and the fresh ginger notes lift the wine's natural spicy complexity.
Thai Green Curry Prawns with Coconut Milk and Kaffir Lime Leaves
An elevated, premium take on an exotic classic pairing. The aromatic drive of the wine and its tropical fruit character integrate seamlessly with the perfume of kaffir lime and coconut. The glyceric weight of the wine tames the curry's heat, while its clean acidity brilliantly refreshes the mouth.
Intense Washed-Rind Soft Cheeses like Munster or Reblochon
Creamy cheeses with washed rinds and intense aromatic profiles share a legendary bond with this grape variety. The cheese's signature richness and lactic power are fully balanced by the wine's smooth texture and pristine acidity, creating an extraordinary, fruit-kissed finish.
