Monte Xanic Chenin Colombard (750 mL)

Grape Variety: Chenin Blanc & Colombard

ABV: 12.8 %

Winemaking: These varieties are harvested at night in order to preserve freshness and retain acidity, as well as protect aromatics. The grapes are immediately transferred to the winery in order to make a careful hand-sorting of the berries prior to soft pressing. The fermentation is in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 13-15°C (64-86°F). No oak aging. No malo-lactic fermentation.

Tasting Notes: 

• Color: It is a crystal clear wine, with a pale yellow hue.
• Nose: On the nose it is frank, with high intensity. Fruity nuances such as pineapple, passion fruit, quince, peach & apricot, followed by typical aromas of acacia hone and a hint of minerality.
• Palate: The mouth-feel is smooth & unctuous, typical of the varietal. It is a bone-dry wine, with a vibrant acidity and light alcohol. Tropical and stone fruits stand out on the finish. It has a medium-bodied wine with a refreshing character.
