88 points Josh Raynolds International Wine Cellar: "($12 list; 40% treixadura and 20% each of torrontes, palomino and godello) Light gold. Mineral-accented pear and orange scents are complemented by lemon zest and floral notes. Silky in texture and dry, offering fleshy orchard and citrus flavors along with gentle mineral cut. Finishes with good clarity and spicy persistence. (Sep/Oct 2009)"

Rich peach and perfumed ripe melon characters of the warmer area style Viura enhance upfront green melon, apple and pear flavors of the cooler area style Viura. A crisp finish with lingering green fruit. A fresh youthful wine makde to drink now. Enjoy with salad, pasta and shellfish dishes during the summer months to make the most of the vibrant fruit characters.

89 points Wine Spectator: "[$13 list] This firm, focused white displays a solid structure, with supporting flavors of pear, ginger, smoke and herb. This is not a showy wine, but has depth and vibrancy. A good match with richer dishes. Drink now through 2015. Smart Buys. (11/15/11)"
88 points Josh Raynolds (International Wine Cellar): "(100% viura): Bright straw. Fresh apple and peach aromas are complemented by honeysuckle and orange peel. Very fruity and smooth in the mouth, offering lively orchard and pit fruit flavors braced by tangy acidity. Just a bit loose-knit on the clinging finish, which repeats the pear note. (Sep/Oct 2011)"

88 points Josh Raynolds (International Wine Cellar): "(made from a 50/50 blend of airen and macabeo): Light, bright gold. Lively aromas and flavors of orchard and pit fruits, with a lemony topnote. Fruity and supple in texture, with good finishing cut and a lingering citrus zest note. As always, this is an excellent value. (Sep 2012)"

88 points Josh Raynolds (International Wine Cellar): "($12 list; 90% verdejo and 10% viura) Pale gold. Spicy, high-pitched aromas of grapefruit, green apple and lemon thyme. Dry and focused, offering nervy citrus flavors and deeper orchard fruit qualities. On the austere side but I like this wine's clarity and finishing cut. (Sep/Oct 2010)"
86 points Peñín Guide: "(85% verdejo, 15% viura) Colour: bright straw. Nose: ripe fruit, citrus fruit, white flowers. Palate: flavourful, fruity, fresh, fleshy. (2011)"
Producer notes: "75% Verdejo, 25% Viura. Straw yellow color with greenish hues. Clean and sensual on the nose displaying tropical aromas of pineapple that lead to big, lovely, powerful fruit, fresh grass and a subtle touch of fennel typical of Verdejo. Soft attack of glycerine followed by fruity, fresh, citrus and sparkling sensations. Extremely refreshing and very soft wine. Serve with a light chill and you will be seduced by the soft texture of this complex wine."

WHWC staff notes: "This freakishly delicious little gem is 100% Grenache Blanc from the Terra Alta region of Spain. Terra Alta lies about 130 kilometers southwest of Barcelona, next to Priorat. In fact, this is basically a poor man's Priorat blanca. This wine comes with everything you desire from a bottle of wine...it's inexpensive (heck, it's cheap!), it's intoxicatingly delicious and the alcohol comes in at under 13%. Buy it now!! I tell you for your own good." -Kaj Stromer, 8/14/12
87 points Peñín Guide: "(100% garnacha blanca). Colour: bright straw. Nose: fresh fruit, white flowers, citrus fruit. Palate: flavourful, fruity, good acidity, balsamic. (2013)"
Producer notes: "While Terra Alta, tucked away in the southeastern corner of Catalonia bordering Aragón and Valencia, is not yet a well-known region, it is one of the largest areas in Catalunya under vine. This Garnatxa Blanca is very aromatic with notes of melon and white fruits on the nose. On the palate, it is balanced with a medium body and a nice crisp freshness. Pairs well with simple tapas and grilled squid. Alcohol 12.95%."

Bitch is a line of fun, approachable, quality-driven wines from winemaker Chris Ringland. 100% Viura from the Aragon region in northern Spain. It is fermented in tank at low temperatures followed by extended aging on its lees. Tasting notes: Aromas of honeydew and musk, followed by soft, juicy fruit and underlying acidity.
