Description
Narupa Alalá is a white wine made from 100% Albariño grapes in the D.O. Rías Baixas by the Narupa Vinos winery.
Narupa Alalá is a white wine aged on its lees, which gives it a very elegant and pleasant palate. This wine dispels the myth that white wine should be drunk within the year.
It is a wine made from Albariño vines planted in siliceous soils, of granitic origin and sandy texture. Sustainable viticulture is achieved through organic practices and zero waste. The grapes are then pressed and undergo a brief maceration in the Narupa Alalá vineyard.
Alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeasts and the wine rests on its lees for 12 months. Finally, it rests in the bottle for a year and a half or two before being released onto the market.
It has an apricot and citrus acidity that is fresh despite the fact that the grapes are harvested after the rainy season that marks the harvest.
Narupa Alalá Tasting Notes
This is a ripe, complex and flavoursome wine with aromas of ripe stone fruit, orange blossom and a touch of sweet spice.
It is surprisingly fresh, unctuous, with a lively acidity, a pleasant passage and a long, balanced finish with a salty touch.
