Grape: Macabeo Garnacha Blanca
Vintage: 2022
Type: White

Influenced by the Iberian system, Moncayo and other mountain ranges, Valdejalón coutns with vineyards between 450 and 1030 meters high refreshed by the Cierzo wind, as well as a great variety of soils and some very old plots of Garnacha, Macabeo and other local varieties. Rainfall is scant, ranging from 200 to 500 l/m² per year. The prevailing wind is called the “Cierzo”, which blows for several days a year. Temperatures in spring and autumn are gentle and agreeable, ranging from 5 to 25º C. Winter temperatures are between -5 and 10º C, while summer temperatures range from 20 to 40º C. More than 3000 hours of sunshine per year.  Vibrant, sweet fruit, oozing with white pepper and very much at ease with itself, this wine
expresses purity and completeness throughout. 60% Macabeo, 40% Garnacha Blanca • Macabeo from La Loma on clay-limestone at 500 meters, Garnacha Blanca from Los Santos on slate at 600 meters • crushed and macerated for 32 hours without sulfur before spontaneous fermentation in concrete • racked to neutral 500L and 900L toneles for 12 months of elevage • 4200 bottles produced •
