Availability: In stock
The Herència Altés winery makes the wine Herència Altés Llunari from several plots of White Grenache situated between Batea and Gandesa, in the region of Terra Alta, southern Catalonia.
To make this organic and vegan white wine from Terra Alta, the grapes are harvested by hand. Once destemmed and trodden, the must and skins are cooled in concrete tanks, where they ferment and rest for approximately 20 days. Once pressed, the white wine Herència Altés Llunari 2022 was kept for five months in three 600-liter amphorae.
This interesting brisat wine - the Catalan equivalent of an orange wine- will pair well with pastas, ceviches and light dishes.

| Nose | This White Grenache wine has great aromatic intensity. Notes of white fruit and citrus, with a lively hint of quince and citrus peel. This orange wine has a pleasant aniseed background with a dash of nuts. |
| Palate | With a gentle entry and a long, very fresh and flavorful mid palate, this wine from the Herència Altés winery brings back the sensations we found on the nose. An orange wine with a slight bitterness (raw almonds) that isn't bothersome. |
