Castell d’Encus, Taïka

Description

Castell d’Encus, Taïka

Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc

This unusual project, Castell d’Encus, located in the northern part of Costers del Segre, is fascinating.

The great Raul Bobet has worked, talked or seen some of the most important figures in the wine industry. By that, I mean tremendous names such as Andre Tchelistcheff, Emile Peynaud or Giacomo Tachis! quite an honor.

Most of the vines are 1000 m. high (above sea level), and all the wines are fermented with their wild yeasts. Which makes interesting wines, less impressive aromatically, but with a much more personal complexity.

Taïka is a sparkling wine that has been produced according to the Ancestral Method. Fine bubbles, discreet nose and gently peachy.
