The White Comet is a white wine from the Terra Alta D.O. produced by the De Haan Altés winery. This wine stands out for its purity and elegance, and is an excellent representative of the wine quality of the region. Terra Alta, located in the province of Tarragona, Catalonia, is known for its Mediterranean climate with continental influences and limestone soils, ideal conditions for vine cultivation. Production This wine is made exclusively from the Garnacha Blanca grape variety, one of the most prominent in Terra Alta. Garnacha Blanca is known for producing fresh, aromatic, and well-structured wines. The grapes used in The White Comet are first selected and harvested by hand to ensure maximum quality and preserve the integrity of the fruit. The winemaking process combines traditional techniques with modern technology. After the harvest, the grapes are gently pressed and the resulting must is fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel tanks. This technique preserves the fresh aromas and distinctive characteristics of Garnacha Blanca. Subsequently, a portion of the wine may be aged in oak barrels, adding complexity and depth to the final wine profile. In the glass, The White Comet presents a pale yellow color with greenish highlights. When brought to the nose, intense aromas of white fruits such as apple and pear are perceived, complemented by subtle citrus and floral notes. On the palate, the wine is fresh and balanced, with a vibrant acidity that provides notable freshness and a long, persistent finish. Pairing The White Comet is a versatile wine that pairs perfectly with a variety of dishes. It is ideal for accompanying seafood, fish, salads, and soft cheeses, offering a complete gastronomic experience. Its freshness and elegance make it perfect for enjoying on any occasion, especially on warm days. In conclusion, The White Comet from De Haan Altés is a wine that reflects the quality and character of the Terra Alta D.O., offering an authentic and refreshing wine experience.
