Mosque Estate

8-hectare estate on Mount Enate, from which we selected a 2-hectare slope facing northeast for the production of this wine. Planting direction (East – West), aiming for very slow ripening as much as possible due to the little direct solar radiation to the clusters.

Elaboration process

Harvest the first week of September. Picked by hand in 20 kilo boxes at dawn (Looking for the lowest temperature 10ºC) Destemmed and macerated in the press for 10 hours at 8ºC.

Fermentation in new French oak barrels (225li) and subsequent aging on lees in barrels for approximately 5 months with daily batonnages.

Tasting note

Straw yellow in color on a golden background due to fermentation in barrels and subsequent aging on lees. Elegant aromas of great intensity that highlight aromas of ripe stone fruit (fennel, white flowers, butter) and secondary aromas such as (toasted, spicy, vanilla).

Great volume and richness of nuances in the mouth. It is fatty and tasty with a soft and unctuous finish, long aftertaste.

It is ideal as an accompaniment to rice, gastronomic dishes, fish, light meats. Serve between 9º-12ºC.
