100% Viura.
Vineyard of one hectare with 45-year old vines and a yield of 30 %.
11 September 2019. 2,480 kilos of grapes harvested. 20 kg. crates.
Still pale, it has evolved from green to golden hues and straw yellow.
A rosary of aromas, with floral notes, honey, white fruit and orange peel, to which subtle balsamic nuances have gradually been added.
Round and smooth, with a creamy texture. A firm mouth-feel, maintaining the long finish of aged white wines. A dry attack, deep volume and a long finish.
Partially destemmed and vatted to maintain a temperature of 10º for a week, to ensure intense maceration and to gain in aromas. After natural bleeding, 1,700 litres of must were obtained and this fermented in a concrete egg-shaped vat.
Aged for four and a half months on its finest lees, after which it was racked off into eight new barrels made of oak from central France, previously cured with the fermentation of other white wines. It spent 11 months in the cask.
From one racking to another we could see that the wine was at home with its long time spent in the barrel. It was destined to become a Reserva, something that we knew intuitively from the low yield of Jesús’s vines. Time proved us right. It was bottled on 14 March 2021.
Contains sulphitos.
