Note di degustazione
A profoundly nuanced white, the 2020 Blanco Remelluri is a blend of various white grapes planted in Labastida, Rioja Alavesa. It aged for 12 months in barrels, ranging in size from barriques to foudres . This yellowish wine reveals notes of pineapple and peach, complemented by hints of citrus and fennel that gracefully rise against a backdrop of wood. Dry and creamy, an oily mouthfeel wraps around the chalky, talcum-powder-like texture. This long-lasting, cleansing white exemplifies the unique perspective of a talented winemaker.

Flinty nose with effusive minerals, crushed stones and chalk. Salted lemons, fine lees and a hint of sour cream. Really bright and expressive, yet intense. Superb energy and length here. Long, mouthwatering finish. Goes on and on. Lots of purity, too. Drink now or hold.
The exceptional 2020 Blanco is from vines between 605 and 805 meters above sea level that were harvested over multiple passes after one episode of hail. This vintage had a slow fermentation, and it feels like a year of finesse and elegance. The wine has fluidity, elegance but also intensity, depth and very pure flavors, with a very saline finish, super tasty. This could very well be the finest vintage for the white... It's not a shy wine, with 14.2% alcohol and a low pH of 3.3, denoting very good freshness. 9,969 bottles were filled in June 2022 from almost 10 hectares of vineyards.
