Note di degustazione
The second vintage of the Reserva white is the 2019 Cune Blanco Reserva, a style of wine they produced in the 1950s and 1960s—dry wines aged in barrel with Viura grapes, looking for more tension and working more in the selection of oak. The wine is 13% alcohol and has a pH of 3.26 (without malolactic) and a classical aromatic profile that is spicy and smoky with notes of dried flowers and chamomile. It fermented in a combination of concrete and oak vats and barrels and matured in second and third use French oak barrels for 18 months. It's medium-bodied but with juicy fruit making it rich and easy to drink, with some developed notes reminiscent of diesel and white tea. It's dry, chalky and tasty. 10,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2021.
