VINIFICATION
Harvest at the end of September. Grapes immediately destemmed and pressed. Slight skin maceration, inside the press, for 6 hours. The resulting must was cooled (6ºC) and statically decanted overnight. Fermentation in stainless steel, for 16 days, with a temperature of 15-16ºC. It remained in a vat with bâtonnage (12 months). A further 7 months in French oak barrels according to use. Bottled in december 2023.
CHARACTERISTICS
Medium intensity yellow color. Citrus and cooked apple notes. Herbal sensation (anise and honey). Medium body, bittersweet, very fresh and pleasant. As it ages, the wine loses some of its initial fresh style, retaining the elements that make it unique. The aromas become more distinct with the emergence of toasted notes of dried fruits, iodine, wax and hay. More elaborate and spicy fish dishes. Serve with white fish carpaccio with a dash of mustard, cockle rice with coriander, Menier sole, or even pan-seared peas with a touch of mint. Serve at 12ºC.
