Altos de Montanchez Extremadura Vegas Altas "Bajo Velo" 2020
About the wine:
In the category of unfortified, "sherry-style" wines, this takes the cake at being the most affordable and certified organic style on the market today! Made from 100% Eva de los Santos (a rare local grape) in certified organic vineyards in Extremadura. Harvested by hand, fermentation happens with indigenous yeast in tank for 31 days. The wine is then aged "Bajo Velo" (under flor) in older oak casks for 277 days followed by cement tanks for 301 days. Bottled unfined, unfiltered, and with low to no SO2. Tastes a little like a softer nod towards a Manzanilla.
