Gotes Blanques, Portal del Priorat Southern France

Gotes Blanques, Portal del Priorat Southern FranceAmazing facet of white grenache in high altitudes, in its most slender and citrus expression. Body and freshness at the same time. Intended absence of the slate terroir and the usual aging in wood. Nerve and liveliness brought by the combined passage through cement tulips and steel tanks. Two vineyards in La Morera, with slow ripening process, where the harvest of white varieties is done later than most of the red varieties of the Bellmunt area.
