The 2024 Sierra de Enmedio Sauvignon Blanc comes from Bodegas Alceno in Jumilla, a region in southeastern Spain better known for robust reds but increasingly recognised for vibrant white wines grown at altitude. The vineyards sit around 600 m above sea level on sandy, stony soils, where warm days and cool nights help the grapes retain freshness and natural acidity in a typically warm Mediterranean climate.
Tasting Notes:
Pale lemon in colour, this Sauvignon Blanc opens with refreshing aromas of green apple, citrus and subtle stone fruit, alongside classic notes of cut grass and fresh herbs. The palate is bright and lively, with crisp acidity and clean, zesty fruit leading to a vibrant, refreshing finish.
Winemaking:
Grapes are harvested from mature vines planted in 1985 and brought to a modern winery for gentle, temperature‑controlled fermentation in stainless steel. This approach preserves the wine’s aromatic intensity and fresh fruit character without oak influence.
Food Pairing:
An excellent match for seafood, grilled fish, fresh salads or light tapas, where its natural acidity and expressive fruit complement delicate flavours.
ABV: 12%
