Envinate Palo Blanco 750ml
| Vintage: | 2019 |
|---|---|
| Description: | The 2019 Palo Blanco was produced with Listán Blanco grapes from the village of Los Realejos in the Valle de la Orotava. They consider 2019 an exceptional vintage for this cuvée, which comes from four plots of centenary cordón trenzado braided vines that ripened properly and earlier than normal, avoiding an unusually warm October. The wine has a moderate 12% alcohol and great freshness and acidity for the variety and especially after having gone through full malolactic. In 2019, 70% of the wine matured in well-seasoned, neutral oval 2,500-liter oak foudres and the rest with fine lees in 350-liter oak barrels. They kept adding vineyards for this wine, so they were able to produce a little more wine. This is a wine that showed them that fermenting at higher temperatures resulted in less fruit and more soil character in the wines. There's always a Burgundian feeling to this wine, sharp and precise and very long, layered and with depth. This follows the path of the 2018. 10,000 bottles and 30 magnums were produced. It was bottled in December 2020. |
