Product Description
Details

Poduced by the Albet i Noya winery, Albet i Noya Lignum is an organic Spanish white wine made from vineyards located in Costers de l'Ordal, a subzone of DO Penedès.

It is made from Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc coming from old vineyards, complemented with Xarel·lo coming from young vines.

Vinification of the three varieties was carried out separately.

The Xarel·lo was fermented in stainless steel tanks. The Sauvignon Blanc was also fermented in tanks, and then aged on its lees for 4 weeks. As for the Chardonnay, it was fermented and then aged for 2 months in oak barrels with periodic stirrings.

Finally, this organic white wine was blended and gently filtered before its bottling.

It is worth noting that Albet i Noya Lignum Blanc 2021 comes with a screwcap.

Albet blanco is my kind of white wine. I like whites with a good nose, a good structure and, above all, freshness. Like this one.
