Tasting Notes:
Aromatic and peachy on the nose with flavours of ripe citrus, more white stone fruit and warm spice balanced by a thread of refreshing minerality and richly textured finish.
About the wine:
Made in collaboration with Pepe Fuster on his 26 hectare vineyard in Terra Alta, close to Tarragona in southern Catalonia. 100% organically-grown grapes are cool fermented in stainless steel and no oak treatment to preserve the intense, pure fruit character.
About the Producer:
La Bascula is the name given to the Spanish wine range produced by Ed Adams MW and South African winemaker Bruce Jack. The term La Bascula means "weighing scales" and represents the balance between indigenous spanish grape varieties (the Grenache Blanc) and modern winemaking methods.
The philosophy of La Bascula wines is small volumes and high quality. The wines are made to represent true value for money and to show the characteristics of the grapes and vineyards.
