More information

The Orto Les Argiles Blanco is a vinicultural gem crafted by the renowned winery Orto Vins, located within the prestigious D.O. Montsant. This white wine stands out for its unique character and its ability to reflect the essence of the Montsant terroir. Production The production follows a meticulous process that begins with the selection of grapes from the most suitable local varieties to express the characteristics of the land. Primarily, the Garnacha Blanca grape is used, although other native white varieties may be added to bring complexity to the wine. The grapes are grown in organic and biodynamic vineyards, where environmentally friendly practices are applied to maintain the natural balance of the ecosystem. Once the grapes reach optimal ripeness, they are manually harvested to ensure the selection of the best clusters. The grapes are carefully transported to the winery, where they are gently pressed to extract the must. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks, using native yeasts to preserve the primary aromas and authenticity of the wine. After fermentation, the wine undergoes aging on its fine lees for a certain period, which gives it greater complexity and texture on the palate. Aging can be done in French oak barrels, although the aim is to maintain the wine's fresh and fruity character. Pairing In terms of pairing, the Orto Les Argiles Blanco is versatile and harmonizes with a variety of Mediterranean dishes. It is perfect to accompany fresh seafood, grilled or baked white fish, as well as Mediterranean cuisine dishes like seafood salads or creamy rice dishes. Its freshness and structure also make it ideal for pairing with soft cheeses or as an aperitif alongside traditional tapas. In summary, the Orto Les Argiles Blanco from Orto Vins is a wine that embodies the vinicultural excellence of Montsant, crafted with dedication and respect for the environment. Its careful production process and its ability to reflect the terroir make it an exceptional choice for wine lovers seeking authentic and memorable experiences.
