Macabeo
Macabeo is Northern Spain's most popular white grape variety, also often seen in southern France's Languedoc. It produces wines of a floral, aromatic nature with relatively low acidity, and it is particularly resistant to oxidation. It is widely used in Spain's Rioja, (where it is known as Viura) and represents over 90% of white grapes planted in the region, all but displacing Malvasia and Garnacha Blanca after its post-phylloxera introduction.
