    • 2008 March 5, Eric Asimov, “Emerging, in Spain, to Warm Applause”, in New York Times‎:
      Those with more sauvignon blanc can take on a brash grassiness, while those that are entirely verdejo or have more viura, the traditional grape of white Rioja, tend to be more mineral-y and floral with a richer texture.
