The white 2019 Picarana comes from a warm and very low-yielding year when they harvested in July (28th), their earliest to date because the vines suffered frost and then it was extremely dry and warm. This has a Mediterranean nose of dry straw and waxy apples, a little in the style of a Garnacha Blanca, with a round palate and mellow acidity, with moderate alcohol, around 13%, as the ripeness was blocked because of the heat and drought, tasty flavors and a long dry finish. It feels polished and ready, a little more evolved than expected, developing some notes of pollen, honey and caramel as the wine sat in the glass. 11,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2020.

Country: Spain

From the deep and intense Rioja wines, or the dry and refreshing Ruedas, from Tempranillos to Verdejos, the range and quality of Spanish wines is always going to impress and fascinate. With several thousand years of traditions and expertise leading the way, Spanish wineries are currently producing some of the most flavorful and interesting wines to come out of Europe, striving to overcome the reputation problems the country suffered in the mid to late twentieth century. Despite being one of the largest producers of wine in the world, with billions of bottles being filled each year, Spanish wine producers are more interested in quality over quantity than ever before. The results of this are some truly world class wines rivaling even the finest produce of France in regards to balance, character and flavor, gaining new fans and enthusiasts every day.
