Product Description
Details

Produced by bodega Alta Alella, Alta Alella Blanc de Neu, also known as Dolç de Neu, is a varietal Spanish sweet white wine made from Pansa Blanca, the local variant of the Xarel·lo variety in the Alella region.

The vineyards, only 2 kilometres from the Mediterranean Sea, are composed of sauló soils -a kind of decomposed granite.

First, the grapes were selected, fully destemmed and cold-macerated for 18 hours to extract their aromatic compounds. Then they were transferred into oak barrels. The alcoholic fermentation of this organic sweet white wine was stopped  to preserve a high amount of residual sugar.

After that, Alta Alella Blanc de Neu 2022 was aged for 4 months in the barrels.

Pair this sweet white wine from Alella with fruit and cream desserts.

This dessert white wine is exquisitely crafted.

Nose

Aromas of Williams pears and golden apples, with hints of candied peaches, bread custard, vanilla and jasmine. This varietal Pansa Blanca (Xarel·lo) is quite expressive.

Palate

This sweet white wine of bodega  Alta Alella is balanced, fresh and very pleasant, with ripe white fruit, a citrusy note and some creamy and toasted remembrance. Long finish with a peachy and balsamic remembrance.
