White Wine Els Bassots 2023
Availability: In stock
Produced by the Escoda-Sanahuja winery, the wine Els Bassots is a varietal Spanish white wine made following an uncompromisingly organic and radically non-interventionist approach.
As with all of the company's products, this no added sulfites white wine is crafted following the guidelines of biodynamic agriculture.
Made solely from Chenin Blanc, the grapes come from a single vineyard located at an altitude of 450 metres in the beautiful southern Catalan region of Conca de Barberà. The grapevines grow in soils composed of clay and limestone.
The wine Els Bassots 2023 was crafted following the "Brisat" technique, a local procedure that is essentially identical to that used for making orange wine.
Thus, the wine must was fermented with the grape skins, as with red wines, in order to enhance its colour intensity and aromatic complexity.
After that, this white wine from Conca de Barberà was aged for 6 months in clay amphorae. Prior to its bottling, the wine was neither clarified nor filtered.
It is important thay you aerate this low-sulfites wine a minimum of 20 minutes before drinking.
