RETA M-2 PALOMINO 2023 - white

Style : Savoury & TexturedIntroducing Reta 'M2' Palomino from Jerez in Spain.Marcelo Retamal is a well-known winemaker from Chile who is now making wine in Spain, in Sierra de Salamanca, Rioja and Jerez. He purchased a plot of old head-pruned vines in Miraflores in 2022 and rented the adjacent plot. He also purchased grapes from Campix, owned by Armando Guerra. The wines are a breath of fresh air, very different from the rest, more elegant, very clean, more Burgundian, very gastronomical, with moderate alcohol and notable freshness and acidity.The year was warm and dry, but the end of the season was more average, and the grapes were picked the 27th of August. It fermented in bota and barrica, where the wine matured for 12 months. All in all, with the wines here, he wants limited input and character from the flor in the wine, which is a thin layer. This has a fresher nose, with some citrus, lemony notes, reminiscent of the notes given by the mites found on some bota stoppers when the wines have flor and they give an incredible aroma of lime. It's fresh and vibrant, lively and long, very complete and balanced. The wine has 13% alcohol, a pH of 3.14 and 6.4 grams of acidity. 2,692 bottles produced. 2024 LUIS GUTIERREZ, The Wine AdvocateRegion : Jerez, SPAINVariety : Palomino ABV: 13% Liquor Act 2007.
