It was made entirely in a single stainless-steel tank, with about 10 days of skin contact with destemmed and crushed white Grenache grapes and using wild, native yeast from the grape skins themselves. A further 60kg of whole bunches of grapes were added to add extra fruitiness thanks to a process called intracellular fermentation, most common in carbonic maceration. Before fermentation finished, everything was passed through the press and allowed to settle for several months before being clarified and filtered prior to bottling. And its alcoholic strength is 10,5% vol.
To the eye is a clear white wine with a nice deep golden – almost amber colour to it.
The nose is quite expressive where ripe quince, peaches and cooked apples dominate. Herbal aromas, such as fennel, give the wine a fresh, almost minty-fresh lift, and the smell of wet stone and brioche add to the complexity of this single-vineyard wine.
In the mouth it’s dry and zingy. Light acidity gets the mouth watering and you can tell it’s had skin contact, because there’s a very light hint of tannins that adds to the dryness. The aromas take on a warmer nature and we get a hint of orange marmalade as well as what we smelled earlier. The finish is long thanks to the minerality, which leaves a slight chalky texture at the back of the mouth, and the minty aromas leave the mouth feeling refreshed.
Pairs well with with Asian dishes such as sushi, bibimbap and smoked eel, and also with a strong, cured, rustic hard cheese.
