Product Description
Details
Acústic Blanc 2017 is a superb white wine from Montsant produced by the Acústic Celler.
This Spanish white wine is made from a blend of 60% White Grenache, 25% Macabeo, 10% Grey Grenache ("Garnatxa Roja") and 5% Pansal (a.k.a Xarel.lo).
Harvested by hand and carefully selected, the grapes were cold-macerated for 48 hours prior to fermentation.
Alcoholic fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks (70% of the wine must), while the rest was fermented in new French oak barrels.
Then this wine from Montsant was aged for 3 months on its lees.
Decant Acústic Blanc 30 minutes before drinking.
Drink now until 2022.

| Palate | Complex and silky, Acústic Blanc, a white wine partially fermented in oak, combines notes of white fruit with suggestions of spices, citrus and smoke. Very good acidity and long, slightly bitter finish. |

Bought this after reading a review in Jancis Robinson's purple pages. The wine is very charactersitic, Mediterranean but not overblown. Excellent!!
