Clean and bright; of a straw yellow colour with olive-like glints. High aromatic intensity, elegant with a great complexity, marked citrus (tangerine, grapefruit) hints and subtle floral notes. Good harmony and balance; it has a well-integrated acidity that grants plenty of freshness and persistence.
Production:
The 15-40 year old plantations settled on lands of varying composition, some of the lands are granitic, the majority, with a clear predominance of slate. This diversity of soils gives the
wine a certain personality and a different character. After thorough ripening controls, the harvest is made in each plot separately.
The grapes are destemmed and afterwards introduced in the press by gravity; we do not use pasta pumps. The pressing is done in a horizontal press of dishes inherited from our ancestors. In the
press, pectolytic enzymes are introduced, which benefit the extraction of flavour from the skins and facilitate the subsequent settling. Also by gravity, the must goes from the press to the settling
tanks; it is done at a temperature of 12°C for 72 h. The clean must passes to ferment in steel tanks where previously a “foot of cuba” was done in the days before a selection of the best grapes.
