A new modern winery, Dinastia Vivanco make modern styled Rioja's with the focus firmly on
bright, juicy fruit flavours. Owned by the Vivanco family, the winery sits alongside what is
generally regarded to be the world's greatest museum of wine. The Museum houses treasures
acquired over two generations by the Vivanco family from ancient Egyptian art through to works by
Picasso. The whole experience is testimony to an extraordinary family's passion for all things
vinous.

 


Vivanco Viura / Malvasia 2007                                                                                                £6.89 + Vat
A clear and bright wine with a pale lemon colour and slight green hints indicating its youthfulness.
Intense aromas of green apple, citrus fruits, pineapple and floral notes that round out the varietal
expression.


Dinastia Vivanco Crianza Rioja 2004                                                                               £8.92 + Vat
Elegant, well-balanced Crianza Rioja with deep, mulberry, cinnamon and plum fruit. The 2004
vintage is a little, riper and more full-bodied than previous releases owing to the warmth of the
vintage.


Dianstia Vivanco Reserva Rioja 2001                                                                         £12.59 + Vat
Complex aromas of spicy oak and eucalyptus overlaid with black and red fruits. A deliciously
rounded mouthful, with soft, supple tannins, and hints of toast and liquorice on the finish.


Dinastia Vivanco Coleccion Vivanco 4 Varietales                                                     £32.32 + Vat
Where the single varietal wines showcase the individual characters of each of the 4 permitted
varieties, the 4 Varietales combines them in a complex, elegant and modern wine.


Dinastia Vivanco Parcelas de Graciano 2005                                                                £40.35 + Vat
The Coleccion range is about sharing a passion for Rioja and for great wine, just as the Vivanco
family do with the rest of their collection in their museum of wine culture.
