Region
Like France’s Vins de Pays, Vino de la Tierra de Castilla is a Spanish geographic indicator for wines from the autonomous region of Castilla-La Mancha. This is a region at an altitude of 700m covered with limestone and argillaceous soils that endure scarce rain falls.
Tasting Notes
Pale yellow with touches of gold. Intense aromas of apple, peach, fennel and tropical fruits on the nose. A fresh and creamy palate with a noticeable tear on the glass, since it is rather glycerine rich.
Food Pairing
The perfect complement to pasta dishes, seafood and fresh cheese.
Technical Information
Its grapes are picked at their optimum ripeness level to obtain a well-balanced wine with just the right levels of sweetness and acidity. The wine undergoes a short period of cold maceration of around 6 hours. Fermentation takes place at 16%C in stainless steel tanks for up to 10-12 days. It is followed by an ageing period on lees to produce an elegant, fresh and fruity wine.
