Bodegas Franco-Espanolas 'Diamante', Rioja Spain
Readers rated this wine:
Rustic, honeyed, substance.
I've been told that this semi-sweet blend of Viura and Malvasia is the number one selling Rioja white wine in the world. It shows earthy aromas of mushrooms and wild honey alongside bruised peaches and melon with a suggestion of wildflowers. It's off-dry with nice palate weight; it has substance and a sort of savoury funky rustic character.
Pairs Great with Gone Crackers Roasted Shallot & Herb

Bodegas Franco-Espanolas Rioja Bordon, Rioja, Spain
Readers rated this wine:
Fresh, dry, light.
Made from Garnacha, with Rioja's white grape, Viura, this pale salmon-hued rose offers sweet red berries, tangerine, tobacco and a whiff of minerals. The palate is light, dry and zesty. It is straightforward and a great quaffer, it offers tart red fruit, cedar and citrus flavours and will pair nicely with charcuterie, fish, appetizers and patio sipping.
