“This is a superb Spanish white.” - Jamie Goode

It may sound simplistic, but the great thing about this wine is that it makes you want to drink it. Some wines make you think, some wines make you emotional, some wines make you cry (usually Bordeaux, when you realise how much you’ve spent). This lively, bright-as-a-button Grenache Blanc from high-altitude vineyards in Aragon is just a wonderfully refreshing white wine with notes of lime blossom and crushed stones on the nose and lemon barley water and chalk on the palate, handled with a light touch, so it comes in at a very palatable 13% alcohol and is the perfect brow-cooler for when you don’t want to think, you just need a drink. Drink now-2026.

The Wine Advocate: “Produced with white organic grapes from the same zone as the red version, the 2022 Botijo Blanco is pure Garnacha Blanca from dry-farmed vines on white limestone soils. It fermented in concrete with indigenous yeasts and matured in concrete with the fine lees and batonnage for five to seven months. It's varietal, waxy, fresh and balsamic, with a note reminiscent of bay leaf, amazing acidity and moderate alcohol and ripeness (13%). It has a bitter and salty twist in the finish, the tastiness of limestone. Drink now-2026.” 91+ points
