"The one white produced at the property, Le Domaine, is a barrel-fermented Sauvignon Blanc-based blend with 40% of Verdejo, Godello and other varieties that add complexity. The Sauvignon Blanc comes from a warm vineyard at 760 meters altitude in a place with lots of sand and boulders, where the grape achieves perfect ripeness. It started fermenting in stainless steel for two days and was then transferred to barrel where it completed fermentation with indigenous yeasts, and an élevage of five months. It feels incredibly fresh. There are Sauvignon aromas, but they are not that dominant, as the variety tends to heavily mark the wines. The oak is nicely integrated, and in a way it reminded me of a white Bordeaux. It should develop nicely in bottle."
