Terra Alta, Petit White, Altavins Viticultors - 2022

Pale yellow in colour with green highlights, this very pretty white gives off fresh aromas of orchard fruit and citrus. On the palate, it is very expressive, subtle, sapid and saline, with a freshness perfectly suited to the summer season. An astonishing high altitude cru, at an astonishing price!

Viticulture

The soil is rich in silt and poor in organic matter. The vineyard lies between 350 and 550 metres above sea level. It enjoys a Mediterranean climate with little rain, plenty of light and is influenced by two prevailing winds, the Cierzo (from the Ebro valley) and the Garbi (from the sea). Thanks to these climatic effects, there are very few diseases, which makes it possible to practise environmentally-friendly viticulture.

Oenology

The grapes are harvested by hand and transported in crates. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats at 18°C, the wine is matured in the same containers and bottled in the spring following the harvest.

Suggestions for accompaniment

Aperitif • Octopus salad • Fish à la plancha • Fresh goat’s cheese.

Altavins Viticultors

Domain
Altavins Viticultors was founded in 2001 by Joan Arrufí and Jordi Casado, two wine enthusiasts, in the heart of the DO Terra Alta, located in the southwest of Catalonia, 200 kilometres from Barcelona, where the soil is rich in silt and poor in organic matter. The vineyard is located between 350 and 550 metres above sea level. It has a Mediterranean climate with little rainfall (between 350 and 450 mm per year), high light levels and is influenced by two dominant winds, the Cierzo (from the Ebro valley) and the Garbi (from the sea). In addition, the nature of the soil provides the grapes with an exceptionally high concentration of minerals, which is felt in the wines with an effect of salinity and freshness that is rare in Catalonia and welcome at the table, with sunny cuisine.
