🇪🇸 Bodegas Navajas Rioja Blanco Joven

Navajas Rioja Blanco Joven – Fresh Viura White Wine from Rioja Alta

Crisp, Fresh Viura from the Heart of Rioja

Bright. Breezy. Born to Chill.

Made by the family-run Bodegas Navajas, this Blanco Joven is pure Viura from the cool slopes of Rioja Alta. It’s unoaked, unfussy, and unapologetically refreshing—like a summer breeze in a bottle. No frills, no oak monsters—just honest, clean fruit and a lot of easy charm.

This wine is all about youthful expression: early harvest, cold fermentation, stainless steel aging. Translation? Citrus, green apple, and white flower vibes all day long.

👨👩👦 The Winery: Bodegas Navajas

Established in 1918 and still family-owned, Bodegas Navajas has been doing things the right way for over a century—farming in Rioja Alta, making honest wines, and letting the grapes speak. The Blanco Joven is their entry-level white, but don’t let the price fool you: it’s made with the same care as their top cuvées.
