Queirón Mi Lugar Blanco 2022 – Rioja, Spain

An exceptional white Rioja showcasing the elegance, complexity, and character of Tempranillo Blanco.

Queirón Mi Lugar Blanco is a beautifully crafted Spanish white wine from the historic village of Quel in Rioja Oriental. Produced by the Pérez Cuevas family, this distinctive white Rioja combines high-altitude fruit, traditional winemaking techniques and carefully integrated oak to deliver a wine of remarkable depth and freshness.

Made from 100% Tempranillo Blanco, the grapes are grown at approximately 640 metres above sea level in the Finca El Aniceto vineyard, where slow ripening encourages aromatic intensity and natural acidity.

Fermented using indigenous yeasts and matured for six months on fine lees in a combination of French oak barrels and amphorae, this sophisticated, textured white wine demonstrates the exciting potential of modern Rioja.

Queirón Mi Lugar Blanco Tasting Notes

Nose: Expressive aromas of ripe peach, apricot and white blossom, complemented by delicate notes of fennel, thyme and aromatic herbs.

Palate: Elegant and medium-bodied, with layers of stone fruit, passion fruit and subtle honeyed richness. Gentle hints of brioche, toasted almonds and beautifully integrated oak add complexity.

Finish: Long, fresh and beautifully balanced, with lingering stone fruit, delicate spice and touches of clove and smoke.

Food Pairing Suggestions

Queirón Mi Lugar Blanco is a wonderfully versatile food wine, particularly well suited to:

Pan-fried cod, hake and other white fish
Grilled scallops and fresh seafood
Vegetable tempura and grilled courgettes
Roast chicken with Mediterranean herbs
Creamy pasta dishes and mushroom risotto
Soft cheeses and Spanish tapas

Serve lightly chilled at approximately 10–12°C to appreciate its aromatic complexity and beautifully balanced texture.
