Product Description
Details

As the winery's portfolio demonstrates, the manager of the Jaume de Puntiró winery, Mr. Pere Calafat, is a strong believer in the potential of Majorca's native grapes. The white wine Jaume de Puntiró Brisat is a prime example of his commitment.

It is made from Giró Ros, a very interesting pre-phylloxera variety with an elegant aromatic profile and a high natural alcohol content. Its high sensitivity to diseases and environmental conditions, though, makes it rather difficult to grow, this being the main reason why it almost became extinct some decades ago. 

This varietal organic white wine from DO Binissalem-Mallorca is made from a single plot of "call vermell" soils - a type of soil with a high ferrous content - at an altitude of 120 metres above sea level. The vines are farmed following organic and biodynamic procedures.

Both in Catalonia and in the Balearic Islands, the name brisat wine describes what is essentially an orange wine. Thus, after being manually harvested, Jaume de Puntiró Brisat 2021 was fermented with the stems and the skins and macerated for several weeks.

Pair this white wine from Mallorca with fish and rice dishes.

Appearance

Clean and bright, the white wine Jaume de Puntiró Brisat is medium amber with some orangeish glints.

Nose

Fresh and intense, this white wine from Majorca smells of pears and apples, combined with notes of peach, apricots and medlar. This Giró Ros also suggests a note of coloured flowers and aromatic herbs.

Palate

Crisp, dry and medium-bodied, this Brisat wine of bodega Jaume de Puntiró combines the austere note typical of orange wines with a great freshness and a certain exuberance. It has a delightfully Mediterranean character, full of garrigue and citrus, with an elegant, delicately bitter finish. 

Our personal opinion

Original and enjoyable, Jaume de Puntiró Brisat 2021 is yet another step in the recovery of Mallorca's rich wine heritage.

As geeky as they come, but, hey, this is actually VERY good if you're into the orange wine scene. Imposing palate, bold and intense, with tons of dried herbs, dried apricots, flowers, etc. Quite a ride.
