GRAPE VARIETIES

Doña Blanca

VINIFICATION

The grapes are sourced from multiple small ungrafted plots of Doña Blanca grape variety (also referred to as Malvasía Castellana), planted prior to 1964 in Villanueva del Campeán, Zamora. The vines are situated in sandy soils with a layer of pebbles on the surface, at an altitude of approximately 700 meters above sea level. Bush trained and with no irrigation, these vineyards yield very low quantities. The grapes were hand-harvested, aiming for both ripeness and natural acidity. Cold maceration with destemmed skins took place for several hours, followed by bleeding and cold pressing. The alcoholic fermentation occurred in stainless steel tanks at an approximate temperature of 15 ºC.

TASTING NOTES

Bright straw color. Subtle yet expressive aromatics, beginning with delicate white floral notes of jasmine. Layers of green apple, pear, and underripe peach emerge, complemented by a hint of citrus zest and wet stones, reflecting the sandy, pebbled soils of its origin. Crisp and fresh with a lively acidity that balances the wine’s light body. Clean and mineral-driven, with a persistent citrus and stone-like nuance that invites another sip.

FOOD PAIRING

Perfect with grilled white fish, light goat cheese, or herb-forward dishes featuring dill or tarragon. Its bright acidity also complements ceviche and Mediterranean-inspired meals.
