Notes & Pairings
Planted in 1925 in what looks like pure beach sand, the combination of a super resilient local grape variety and low disease pressure make it one of the best price to quality ratio wines from the area. Among the fossils of sea shells, one of the main cover crops is horseradish. We’ve heard it described fondly as green apples meets rich mineral spa water, but with 5 days of skin contact, it almost smells like a dead ringer for Spanish cider without the bubbles. After 8 months in 500L barrel, there’s an additional spice and concentration despite being dry and 9.8% alcohol. Bottled unfined and unfiltered with a small addition of SO2 (15ppm).
