El Palomar Albarino 2017 Bodegas Zarate
El Palomar Albarino 2017 is a Spanish white wine produced by Bodegas Zarate. The Albarino grapes come from vineyards that are about 150 years old, which are the oldest on the estate, from a particular terroir of granite matrix that gives great minerality to the wine.
The grapes are harvested by hand, carefully selected and after destemming and a gentle, slow pressing, they ferment spontaneously in 2200 L foudre of 15 year old French Vosges oak where they remain on their lees until malolactic fermentation takes place. At the end of fermentation, it rests for three months on the lees before bottling, for a total of 9 months.
El Palomar Albarino 2017 by Zarate is a rich white wine with a nose that mainly expresses citrus and mineral scents. The sip is very fresh and vertical, at the same time full-bodied, with hints of citrus and mineral salts. This wine has a great predisposition to ageing, about 5-10 years.
