Product Description
Details
This is the new vintage of Trossos Sants, a very interesting Spanish white wine produced by Alfredo Arribas.
A varietal White Grenache, the grapes were sorted from several little vineyards (trossos) of low-yielding, over 40-year-old vines located in Montsant.
Harvested by hand in little boxes, once in the cellar the grapes were partially destemmed, crushed and drawn-off. After that, half of this Crianza white wine was fermented in 500-litre French oak barrels; the other half completed the operation in stainless steel tanks.
After that, Trossos Sants 2019 was aged for 5 months. Finally, it was blended an bottled.
We suggest that you aerate this Montsant white wine some time before drinking.

| Appearance | The white wine Trossos Sants is pale yellow with some waxy tinges. |

| Nose | This varietal White Grenache from Montsant is complex and ever-evolving. Aromas of nuts, almonds and underbrush, nuanced by hints of white flowers, pineapple and citrus over a deep mineral background. |
| Palate | Quite complex, though still in the developing stage, this wine from Alfredo Arribas is fresh, textured and energetic. Long finish with some smokey and bitter remembrances. |
| Our personal opinion | We definitely think that White Grenache is an underrated variety. If you want to know why, just try Trossos Sants 2019. |

Arribas' wines are among the most elegant, Atlantic-like in Priorat. He knows how to use oak and does not overextract. This garnacha blanca is superb!
