Product Description
Details
Arguably the most important winery in Somontano, Enate pioneered the production of Chardonnay wines in that northern Spanish region.
This single varietal Spanish white wine was meticulously crafted.
Harvested by hand, the grapes were destemmed and gently pressed. Then Enate Chardonnay Fermentado en Barrica underwent alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in new French oak barrels.
After that, this wine of the Enate winery was aged on its lees for 7 months, with two monthly stirrings of the lees.
Clarified and cold-stabilized, Enate Chardonnay Fermentado en Barrica 2018 was finally aged for a further 6 months in the bottle before its commercial release.
