A LO-FI wine, without any sulphites added
ELABORATION
Manual harvest in boxes of 200 kg with careful selection. Once in the winery, the grapes spend about 24 hours in a cold room between 3 and 5 ºC. Direct pressing with whole grapes, only using a small proportion of the free run must (30%). Natural static racking, without adding anything, with subsequent controlled oxidation of the must to limit the extraction of polyphenols. Spontaneous fermentation with wild yeast in concrete tanks. Malolactic fermentation and aging with regular bâtonnages of the fine lees in the same concrete tanks for about 5 months in order to improve the sensations in the mouth. Not finned wine. Very light filtration.
VARIETIES: Garnatxa Blanca 100%
RECOMMENDED PAIRING: Romesco monkfish or roasted gilthead bream with Mediterranean herbs.
At Herència Altés we are yesterday's footprint in our gaze towards tomorrow.
We are land, landscape, culture, history and innovation.
The vineyard, cultivated in an ecological way and the wine in its maximum expression, are protectors of our landscape and guardians of our biodiversity. In the winery, we have an environmental project, which protects the flora and fauna indigenous of our environment.
At home, we follow a philosophy of minimal intervention, we respect the wines to maintain the essence of the fruit and thus achieve a perfect harmony between the hand of man and what the earth gives us.
Our aging room is totally underground, to have the perfect temperature and humidity throughout the year in a sustainable way. We work with large oak foudres, of 5000 and 2500 liters, with the philosophy of making long aging, but with the minimum impact of the wood.
Fresh, serene, polished and friendly wines.
