Winemaker Notes

Made by Bodegas Ontañón de Logroño and selected by Felix Jiménez himself, (a native Riojan and Chef/owner of acclaimed Japanese restaurant, KIRO SUSHI), Akemi is a viura varietal (the most widespread white variety in the DOCa Rioja) that has been raised in American oak barrels for five months.

The fusion of wood and fruit gives vanilla touches and toast and a subtle floral aroma with memories of white pepper. All this forms a well-balanced wine, fleshy in the mouth, with a fine natural acidity that is well served with fish and shellfish and becomes the perfect accompaniment for Japanese cuisine.
