Product Description
Details
Produced by L'Olivera Cooperativa, the wine Agaliu is an organic Spanish white wine made solely from Macabeo.
The grapes were meticulously harvested and selected. Using only the "free-run" juice, 65% this organic white wine was fermented in American and French oak barrels, 15% new. The remaining 35% of this vegan white wine went through the process in stainless steel tanks.
After that, 65% of the white wine Agaliu 2023 from DO Costers del Segre was aged on its lees for 6-8 months with periodic strirrings in the barrels. The rest was aged in concrete diposits, ceramic amphorae and stainless steel tanks.
Packaged with a characteristic blue bottle, this white wine from Costers del Segre is produced near the beautiful Vallbona de les Monges monastery, in the very heart of the so-called Cistercian Route in southern Catalonia. An oasis of tranquility that really deserves a visit.
13,664 bottles produced.

I find this wine subtle, fresh and very nicely made. Besides, there is a worthy cause behind it.
