2020 - Bical
Quite refreshing, with complex citrus tones and stoney minerality. Picture tropical fruit and white flowers. Slightly hazy and some sediment due to being unfiltered.
The vineyards are farmed sustainably and the grapes are harvested in early September, de-stemmed and spends a short time on skins before being allowed to spontaneously ferment partially in French oak and stainless steel (temperature control), which lasts three weeks. The wine spends no time on lees and is aged in French oak for six months. Not fined or filtered.
