Celler Frisach L’Abrunet Blanc 2019

100% Garnacha Blanca

DO Terra Alta

A new project that has started in 2009, but the third generation taking care of the vineyards. Here, the land is in Tarragona. It shares similarities with Priorat, but soils a completely different. Hence the wines do show some characters that could be priorat-like, but in general with less strength, less rusticity and more elegance.

Here, the climate can be very warm and, in order to gain in freshness, 50% of the Garnacha Blanca is picked at 11% (more or lesss). Then, the second part is harvest later, more complex, richer at around 14%. finally, both part are blended together. the result is a complex wine made in a warm climate, that enjoy the freshness of the first part. Clever, simple, efficient.

Did I said that, Celler Frisach, was one of our favorite estate from Catalunya!
