Ontañón Vetiver is composed of 100% Viura, a grape indigenous of Rioja, but known in other parts of Spain as Macabeo. Viura is on of three white varieties permitted for use in White Rioja by the D.O.Ca. of Rioja (the governing body of wines from the region). Viura is characterized by its vibrant and lively expression of the clay and limestone-rich soil in which it is grown.

The Ontañón Vetiver is aged for nearly six months in oak and for an additional six months in bottle prior to release. The wine displays subtle hints of a lifted floral component as well as a voluptuous mouth-feel, reminiscent of tropical fruit, grapefruit, a touch of white pepper and toast. It is well balanced, with a fine line of natural acidity and a round, full finish.
