Ancestral de la Cristina
Celler Jordi Llorens / Blancafort, Conca de Barberà
Old vine macabeu growing on intensely alkaline limestone at 600 metres above sea level. Gentle maceration over four days, fermentation in stainless. The wine finished it’s sugars in bottle and spent 12 months ageing on the lees before disgorging. A crisp, chiselled ancestral with texture from the skins, the nose is lively with ripe stone fruits and toasted almonds. Wonderfully refreshing with a moreish sapidity on the finish.
