Product Description
Details
The prestigious winemaker Raül Bobet crafts this remarkable Spanish white wine right on the foothills of the Catalan Pyrenées, amidst an unspoiled natural environment.
Varietal of Sauvignon Blanc, the wine Taleia is made from vines grown at an altitude around 1,000 metres above sea level, in poor, calcareous soils which bring the wine a distinctive, zesty minerality.
Produced by the Castell d'Encús winery, the grapes were carefully harvested and selected.
After that, the wine was fermented in new French oak barrels, stainless steel tanks and stone vats dating from the XIIth century.
Then half of the white wine Taleia 2021 from Costers del Segre was aged in oak barrels for 6 months. Finally, it was kept for over 2 years in the cellar prior to its release.
Decant this white wine from Costers del Segre some time before drinking.
13,600 bottles produced.

Additional Information
| Appearance | The white wine Taleia is medium straw with some steely and greenish tinges. |
|---|---|
| Nose | Showcasing a stony and mineral edge, this Sauvignon Blanc wine suggests hints of withered vegetables and spices, with remembrances of white flowers and spices over a layer of crisp minerality. |
| Palate | Lively and focused, this white wine from Castell d'Encús packs layers of green lime, elderflower and lemon pith, with some vegetal, spicy and floral notions. Vibrant acidity and long, mineral finish. |
| Our personal opinion | The white wine Taleia 2021 is stimulating and rewarding. |

Tale
This is a highly sophisticated wine from northern Catalonia, near the Pyrenees. Intensely mineral, with some floral and grassy nuances and a flash of spices. It leaves a very pure, expansive sensation on your mouth. Long and full of potential.
