• Suckling 92

This is the first time that a 100% Viognier has been made at Finca Élez. Made from grapes from a small plot cultivated at around 1000 meters above sea level. This wine stands out for the singularity of the varietal and its masterful adaptation to our terroir, an unusual place for Viognier.

Its fermentation and aging in 2000-liter foudres of the best French oak result in a wine with great personality, very fresh and with a lot of minerality.

In the industry, there is a lot of excitement and high expectations for this wine, whose production is very limited, around 2600 bottles.

A white wine for aging: Viognier, a variety that we pamper at the estate to create a great white wine every year, mineral, fresh, and vertical.

The fermentation and aging are carried out in 2000-liter foudres to respect the variety to the maximum and with meticulous work with its fine lees to give more unctuousness, mouthfeel, and elegance. A gastronomic wine due to its complexity, with great aging potential.

PRODUCTION

• Harvest: in the early morning to keep the grape temperature low until it enters the winery.
• Maceration for 8-9 hours at 8oC for better aroma extraction.
• Gentle pressing: Only the must from gentle pressing below 0.8 pressure is used to make the wine.
• Static settling for 36 hours and then fermentation. Fermentation in 2000-liter French oak foudres, controlling the temperature throughout the process to keep it below 17oC.
• Aging in 2000-liter foudres, 10 months of aging on lees. During this time, batonnage is carried out to improve the wine's unctuousness and complexity.
