White Wine Aucalà Blanc 2022
Availability: In stock
Produced by Serra i Barceló, the personal project of Josep Serra in Terra Alta, Aucalà Blanc is a varietal White Grenache produced following a minimal intervention winemaking approach.
Meticulously selected, once in the cellar the organically grown grapes were first gently whole-bunch pressed in an inert environment, after which they were drawn-off.
Then this Spanish white wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks, and aged for 5 months on its own lees and on lees coming from previous vintages.
After that, Aucalá Blanc 2022 was clarified and filtered before bottling.
We suggest that pairing this white wine from Terra Alta with fish recipes and creamy cheeses.
