VENDIMIA NOCTURNA / ALBARIÑO 2020

APPEARANCE Glowing pale yellow colour with flecks of green. Fine, slowly flowing drops. NOSE In a still glass there is a fragrance of white flowers: jasmine, acacia and white roses. When moved, it releases exotic hints of cherimoya, mango and pineapple, with fresh notes of grapefruit and lime. MOUTH Initially fresh and clean in the mouth, with a wonderful balance between acidity and maturity. A lively, fresh, lasting sensation on the palate. An elegant perfumed, slightly bitter aftertaste. A smooth, creamy texture, a rich coating sensation. SERVING Serve between 6ºC and 8ºC in medium-sized glasses with a wide body, slightly narrower at the top. An ideal wine to serve with white fish: turbot, sole, bream, etc., boiled shellfish, octopus, fish rice dishes. It is also perfect to serve with a chickpea stew. NOTE The Albariño grape variety is originally from Galicia, and was brought to the region of Requena in the 60’s by Jesús Requena, a winemaker from Siete Aguas, who at the time trained Galician producers to make quality white wine using that grape variety. Our Albariño vines are from that old vineyard in Siete Aguas. This variety is an emotional memory of the origins of the founder of Pago de Tharsys, Vicente García, who began his career teaching enology in Galicia.
