2023 Flor de Sara Viura
Like blooming flowers in springtime, the 2023 Flor de Sara Viura is a soft, aromatic wine from the Rioja growing region of Spain. Cold Atlantic winds clash with warm Mediterranean breezes to give the grapes of this region deep and complex flavors that are difficult to replicate anywhere else. As a wine intended to be enjoyed young, the Flor de Sara Viura is exceedingly versatile, toeing the line between casual and refined. Pair this delightful varietal with chicken or seafood meals or bring out the bottle for appetizers of soft cheese and vegetables.

"We tried this wine both chilled and at room temperature, and it disappointed both times. Pinning down any tasting notes was an exercise in frustration as the citrus-forward palate is appallingly flat and one-dimensional. It drinks as though the winemakers cut corners everywhere, from maceration to aging, as if using grapes already pressed once before."
"Hard for me to write since I’m still waiting for my order. It was supposed to have been delivered last Thursday. Now I’m being told tomorrow or Tuesday no explanation given."
"Unable to review because we haven’t been able to drink it. There is a problem with my shipment that I am going to contact you about… Order #11800689 sent on May 26th. Shipment 023107293 to be delivered to 2150 Indian Point Road, Washington Island, WI. I was informed the shipment was damaged by FedEx in Green Bay Long story short, it supposedly was not damaged and delivered to Washington Island on June 2nd. We did not get here to the Island until yesterday, June 22nd…and found a different box, not Wine Insiders, and each bottle was wrapped in brown paper, and there were only 14 bottles, not 15. The shipping description list has 16 bottles on it…. I will be calling to get this all corrected, and I will look forward to enjoying the rioja very soon. I will need it!
