Mas Que Vinos
2023 Conejos Malditos Blanco Con Madre
BLEND | 60% Malvar & 40% Airén
VINEYARDS | Handpicked grapes of the local varieties Malvar and Airén, organically grown. Soils are limestone at 750 meters in this continental climate.
WINEMAKING | Spontaneous, natural whole cluster fermentation with indigenous yeast in amphorae. Kept on the lees and stems for six months and then bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal sulfer added.
TASTING NOTES | The biggest threat to these old vines are not the extreme conditions they face each year - whipping winds, blistering heat, bitter cold, lack of rain - it is rabbits. Cute as they may be, the destruction they cause is massive - taking out entire hectares of vineyards each year.
Herbal and earthy, this wine has everything you want in a natural, skin contact white and none of the things you don’t (funky not flawed). Exotic and spicy with rich honey notes that provide a broad, soft palate. Integrated acidity and pristine winemaking keeps the wine so fresh and so clean clean.
