Production:
L'Abrunet de Frisach is made from 100% white Grenache selected manually and sourced from a single plot called "Finca Quart" vineyard property of the family Frisach located in Corbera d’Ebre in the Terra Alta region.
Organically farmed and grown on clay, stony, and calcareous soil. The work done at the vineyard is crucial to the development of the wine. They play with the different ripening times of the variety, harvesting at two different times the same vines.
The first harvest takes place when it reaches around 11.50º alcoholic strength to obtain the natural acidity of the grapes. Once half of the fruit is gone, the rest of the grapes left at the vines will achieve a better maturation. The second harvest takes place when the alcoholic strength reaches 14.5º, and finally the two parts are blended. Bottled unfiltered, unclarified and unstabilised, this is Grenache in its purest form.
Tasting Notes:
Pale yellow in colour with golden hints. Packed with fresh fruit, white fruit, tropical notes, aromas of citrus fruits and apples, slightly grassy and mineral feeling. On the palate, it displays a character marked by refreshing acidity and a light bitter finish.
Note: Enjoy now in its youth or over the next 1-2 years .
