White Wine Nora 2022
Availability: In stock
Made from 20-year-old Albariño vines, Nora is a varietal Spanish white wine from Bodega Viña Nora.
The vineyards are scattered across three subzones of DO Rías Baixas: Condado de Tea, Salnés and Valle de Ula. The soils are composed mainly of granitic rock.
Handpicked and meticulously selected, the grapes were cold-soaked for 6 hours to maximize the extraction of aromatic compounds. Then a 10% of this white wine from Rías Baixas was fermented in oak, and the rest in stainless steel tanks.
After that, Nora 2022 was aged for 4 months on its lees.
This is a promising young white wine that will grow in the bottle.
Appearance | The white wine Nora is medium straw with steely tinges. |
---|---|
Nose | This varietal Albariño suggests some delicate, clean aromas of freshly cut grass, white fruit and white flowers - jasmines and peonies - underpinned by some entrancing mineral remembrances. |
Palate | Crisp and fruity on the palate, with delightful remembrances of flowers, citrus, herbs and white fruit. This wine from Bodega Viña Nora is fresh and tight, with a lingering, flowery aftertaste. |
Our personal opinion | A dozen oysters and a bottle of Nora 2022. Who could ask for anything more? |
