Product Description
Details
The wine Massís de l'Albera Les Tortugues comes from the Serra de l’Albera, in the northernmost tip of DO Empordà, a rugged area on the Catalan-French border swept by the tramuntana, a strong northern wind that acts as a natural sanitizing agent for the vines.
This varietal Spanish white wine is made from Grey Grenache, the flagship variety of the region, sourced from sloped vineyards with slate soils planted on the foothills of the Albera mountain range.
Harvested just before peak maturation to preserve the acidity, the grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks under low temperature. After that, this white wine from Empordà went through a partial malolactic fermentation and was aged for 6 months sur lie with periodic stirrings.
Finally, the white wine Massís de l'Albera Les Tortugues 2024 was clarified, filtered and stabilized using no animal products. Once bottled, this young white wine was stored for 12 months in the cellar before hitting the market.
