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, 75% this organic white wine was fermented in 80% American and 20% French oak barrels, 15% new. The remaining 25% of this vegan white wine went through the process in stainless steel tanks.

After that, the white wine Agaliu 2022 from DO Costers del Segre was aged on its lees for 6-8 months with periodic strirrings.

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.

15,083 bottles produced.

The white wine Agaliu is medium yellow with some greenish glints.

Nose

This varietal Macabeo suggests aromas of citrus, white flowers, dry fruit, some smokey hints and some mineral remembrances.

Palate

Dry and fresh, this white wine of L'Olivera Cooperativa is smooth-bodied, with an excellent acidity and a long, gently mineral finish with remembrances of bitter herbs, pears and aniseed.

Our personal opinion

The white wine Agaliu 2022 pairs well with many kinds of food. We suggest pairing this organic Macabeo with pasta and creamy cheeses.

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