White Wine Vespres Blanc 2022
Availability: In stock
Produced by Josep Grau Viticultor, the wine Vespres Blanc is a characterful Spanish white wine from DO Montsant.
A varietal White Grenache, the grapes come from 15-year-old vineyards situated near the village of Marçà. They are organically grown following environmentally-friendly procedures.
Harvested by hand, the grapes were gently crushed for 6 hours and then fermented with indigenous yeasts in a 1,900-litre concrete egg.
Finally, this white wine Vespres Blanc 2022 was aged on its lees in those same vats for a period of 5 months.
Pair this white wine from Montsant with shrimp, pasta and fish recipes.
Appearance | The white wine Vespres Blanc is medium straw with a greenish rim. |
---|---|
Nose | Rich aromas of white flowers and white fruit. As this varietal White Grenache opens, it evolves into aniseed and aromatic herbs, with some mineral undertones. |
Palate | This white wine from Josep Grau Viticultor is tasty and excellently balanced. A hint of spices and mineral, a dash of bitter herbs and flavours of white fruit. Remarkable acidity which carries the wine, leading to a long, complex finish. |
Our personal opinion | Well-defined and unpretentious, the wine Vespres Blanc 2022 is a delicious white wine form Monsant. |
