Reto 2019

For the only white produced here, whose current vintage is the 2019 Reto, they want dry weather before and during the harvest, as they don't macerate the skins and do a direct pressing, so they want the grapes to be concentrated and dry. It fermented in 600-liter barrels and a 1,500-liter foudre with indigenous yeasts and was kept with lees for seven months. As I saw in other wines from 2019, this is a little more expressive than other years, more approachable and possibly easier to understand. It was harvested around the 15th of August, more normal dates than, for example, 2018, which was extremely early. It has the signature tasty and saline character of the grape, supple and long, still austere and sharp, especially given the zone and the year. 15,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2020. - Luis Gutiérrez.
