Cerro la Isa Viñedo Singular Blanco 2018
Fiche technique
L'avis des experts
Cerra la Isa is a brilliant, old-vine field blend from a vineyard planted in 1906 at 700m in cool climate Baños de Río Tobía. Fermented in new French oak, but not dominated by it, this is a cuvée of Garnacha Blanca, Malvasía, Viura, Calagraño and Turruntés that's pithy, intense and layered, with some texture from lees contact and flavours of beeswax, citrus, aromatic spices and a whisper of tropical fruit. Drinking Window 2021 - 2028.
Lighter in colour and structure than the maiden 2017 Viñedo Singular release, this pure Garnacha hails from a vineyard planted at an extreme 700 metres in 1906. Floral, refined and showing aromas and flavours that are almost Pinot Noir like, this is fresh and tangy, with nuanced oak and raspberry, red cherry and strawberry fruit. 2022-30
