Blanc de Noir, red Garnacha from century old vines

History: the purpose of this wine is to pay tribute to the old days, when a blanc de noir (white wine made with red grapes) was the only way to drink white wine in a land of red grapes.

The magic of this wine lies in the delicate exposure to the flor veil during fermentation in oak barrels, something natural a few years ago when the “flor veil” grew in summer and died in winter.

This vintage is the 4th time we pay homage to what we inherited.

Harvest: by hand, end of September

Winemaking: Pressed with the feet and quickly separated from the skins. Fermentation begins in stainless steel tanks.

Aging: Biological ageing sur lies in French oak barrels, for 9 years.

The barrels are half-full, thus allowing the wine to age with flor yeast during this process.

Production: approximately 1000 bottles (75cl)

Tasting note: Deep golden yellow. Fruit on the nose, but quite evolved, showing ripe stone fruit, tart cider apple notes and dried floral notes. Lactic notes on the palate with a bready, yeasty character to it from the ageing. The beauty of this wine remains on how fresh it stays after a long ageing, with vibrant acidity and an umami finish.
