Wii Gonzalo Gonzalo, Gran Cerdo Blanco, Rioja, Spain

A bright, juicy and aromatic white from the Rioja region of Spain. Comes with a cautionary tale to all financiers.

Wii Gonzalo Gonzalo is considered quite a character and is certainly determined. They had an idea to make low interference wine in Rioja (revolutionary for the area) and set off to numerous banks where they were refused loans as wine was not considered a ‘impoundable assets’. Their determination and drive led them to friends and family and luckily they were able to turn their ideas to reality. As a little nod to the many bankers who refused their dreams, we have Gran Cerdo, literally ‘big pigs’ in English.
