Pinoso are bringing back a very peculiar grape variety named Merseguera, traditionally grown in the region. For this project, bush vines from limestone soils, located at more than 650 meters altitude have been used. Controlled yields barely supported by the Mediterranean-Continental climate.
Once the hand-harvesting has been carried out during the very early hours of the day, the grape juice is then macerated with its skins at 8°C for 6-8 hours. Part fermented in stainless steel at 14°C on thin lees, whereas the other part is fermented in new French oak barrels. This is to keep the fine floral freshness & to get a very balanced & harmonious wine.
Tasting Notes
Yellow with golden tones & fresh notes of white flowers, grapefruit, fennel, mint & peach. Fresh with notes of apricot, bitter almond, grapefruit & mint. Mediterranean character, balanced acidity, with a long, elegant finish.
Food Match
Pairs well with white roasted meat, sushi, risotto, aged cheese & cold meats.
