Production:
The Sauvignon Blanc Fermentat en Barrica 2021 from Macià Batle is a high-quality white wine made exclusively from Sauvignon Blanc grapes. The grapes are hand-harvested at their optimal ripeness in mid-September. The juice is then obtained through gentle pneumatic pressing to preserve the freshness and purity of the must. Fermentation takes place in new French oak barrels at a controlled temperature, not exceeding 17ºC, to maintain the intensity of the varietal aromas. After fermentation, the wine rests in the same barrels for a period of 6 months, which adds complexity and structure before being bottled.
