White Wine Trossos Sants 2021
Availability: In stock
This is the new vintage of the wine Trossos Sants, a very interesting Spanish white wine produced by Alfredo Arribas.
A varietal White Grenache, the grapes were sorted from several two vineyards (trossos) of low-yielding, 40 to 60-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, this Crianza white wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks for 15 days.
After that, the wine Trossos Sants 2021 was aged for 5 months, one third in big oak vats and the rest in stainless steel tanks.
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 | White Grenache is definitely an underrated variety. If you want to know why, just try the wine Trossos Sants 2021. |
