WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
All varieties used by Abel Mendoza are indigenous to Rioja. In 2009, they decided to do a blend of all five white varieties they grew. The first blend was 20% of each, but this was later adjusted to a taste-based decision. The wine is called 5V because at the time, Tempranillo Blanco and Torrontés were not allowed to be put on the label by the Consejo Regulador of Rioja.
