This wine falls under the IGP Valdejalón, a protected geographical indication that guarantees the quality and authenticity of the wines from this region. Production The production of Botijo Blanco is meticulous and respectful of local traditions. Garnacha Blanca is a native variety known for its resistance and ability to express the terroir of Valdejalón. The grapes are handpicked at their optimal ripeness, ensuring that only the best fruit is used in the wine. After harvest, the grapes are gently pressed and the must is fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. This process helps preserve the natural aromas and flavors of the grape. The wine is then aged on lees for several months, adding complexity and a creamy texture. In terms of its organoleptic characteristics, Botijo Blanco stands out for its pale yellow color with greenish reflections. On the nose, it offers a bouquet of fresh and floral aromas, with notes of white fruit such as pear and peach, accompanied by a subtle citrus touch. On the palate, it is a balanced wine, with refreshing acidity and a long, mineral finish. Pairing For pairing, Botijo Blanco is very versatile. It is recommended to pair it with fish and seafood, especially those grilled or steamed, as its freshness enhances the flavors of the sea. It also pairs well with salads, rice dishes, and Asian cuisine such as sushi or spring rolls. Its balance and elegance make it perfect for enjoying on any occasion, from a casual dinner to a more sophisticated event. In summary, Botijo Blanco from Bodegas Frontonio is an excellent representation of Garnacha Blanca from IGP Valdejalón, offering a wine experience that combines tradition, quality, and a unique flavor profile.
