Light stone-fruit and vanilla aromas lead to a fresh, somewhat dilute palate that offers apple and peach flavors. Wet and juicy, with clean, medium-force acids. Easy to quaff. Imported by CIV/USA. 1 Note

The yellowish color is an indicator that it may be over the top, and it is. Honey and mealy apple aromas and flavors are out of whack with what Viura/Macabeo should be. Enough said. 1 Note

This is a nice little Viura (with 15% Chardonnay) that smells nutty and smooth and tastes of tangy citrus and other white stone fruits. It has more acidity than body and it locks onto that citrusy profile and doesn’t let go. But overall it’s a good quaff for the price. 1 Note

This pleasant wine shows clean apple, hay and mildly floral aromas. Even and round on the tongue, it has a slightly waxy feel and decent acidity. Green apple, citrus and slightly nutty flavors play on the finish, with a crisp, dry grapefruity aftertaste that lingers. Best Buy. 1 Note

Search the world over and you’ll be hard-pressed to find a more pleasing low-cost white than this 100% Viura. It doesn’t take an expert to appreciate the unoaked freshness of this lightweight. The seamless bouquet snaps with melon, while the palate shimmies with citrus and apple. There are no frills to this wine, just consistency and simplicity. And the cooler you serve it, the crisper it’ll come across. 1 Note

Always a solid Rioja white; the 2004 is ripe and refreshing, with aromas of melon and canned fruit. Fresher on the palate, with notes of green herbs, dry melon, apple and white pepper. Zesty and clean, with even more dryness and pepper to the finish. Imported by Vineyard Brands. 1 Note

Once again this Viura ranks as one of the better values in white Rioja. It deals a punchbowl bouquet of round melon and pineapple, while the dry but fresh palate pushes green melon and white pepper. Limited in what it can offer but good for what it costs. 1 Note

As always, this gracious white wine made from the Viura grape delivers the goods. In this case, it’s pineapple and pear aromas in front of pleasant apple and fresh celery flavors. There’s even some honeyed apple to the finish. Light, liquidy and never bad when served properly chilled. 1 Note

A little creamy, waxy and scattershot, but also far more exotic and different than most $8 wines. This is barrel-fermented Viura, but the oak level is light and manageable. Flavors of papaya, melon and citrus are almost tropical in scope, and the finish is pretty fresh. Drink right away for maximum freshness. 1 Note
