Notes de Dégustation

Intense but very elegant aroma, very faithful to the natural characteristics of the grape variety in its original terroir. Complex, with predominating citrus notes, nuances of some flowers and tea, and a vibrant mineral character that intensifies in the mouth. Structured by nature and with a beautiful acidity, it is a very persistent wine with high aging potential.

Vinification

The grapes were cooled to 5ºC, followed by gentle destemming and a pellicular maceration for a few hours at low temperature. 50% of the batch: after pressing, the must was clarified by decantation, fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 16ºC, with the wine remaining on the fine lees for 1 year with regular “batonnage”. 50% of the batch: after pressing, the must underwent a long maceration (8 days at 6ºC) with lees. After this period, the must was decanted, followed by alcoholic fermentation in French oak barrels (30% new, and the rest 2 and 3 years old), where it remained on the fine lees for one year with regular “batonnage”. Aged in bottle for 1 year after bottling.

Accompagnement

Morue rôtie au four

Ce vin s’accordera parfaitement avec des pâtes crémeuses, du poulet ou du poisson rôti, ainsi que des viandes grillées. Il peut également bien s’associer avec des fromages, en particulier des fromages affinés ou durs comme le Parmesan ou le cheddar vieilli.
