The Lagar d´Amprius Winery presents us with the White Wine Kolenda Lagar d´Amprius from the Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) Vino Bajo Aragón (Spain), made from 100% Gewürztraminer grape varieties. This wine is part of the "Los Vinos de Buñuel" edition, designed to pay homage to Calanda, the town where our most universal filmmaker, Luis Buñuel, was born.

Kolenda was the name of the Celtiberian settlement that inhabited these lands centuries ago, characterized by noble and innovative spirits. The Lagar d’Amprius Kolenda is a 100% Gewürztraminer. The eighteen-year-old vines are specially cared for to obtain excellent quality fruit. All vineyards are owned by the winery, allowing for total control over the cultivation and harvesting process.

This beautiful bottle, which references the Ruta del Tambor y el Bombo, a tradition deeply rooted in the Bajo Aragón region, contains the Gewürztraminer variety, a unique and special wine. This wine maintains the typical characteristics of the variety while also showing its Mediterranean character, offering an original wine that will delight and surprise, both in terms of design and taste.

The harvest is always done at night, aiming to pick the grapes at the lowest possible temperature. This procedure is crucial to avoid excessive oxidation and properly cool the grapes. Dry ice is used during the tractor journey to the winery to achieve this. Once in the winery, after destemming and gently pressing the grapes, a skin maceration is carried out at a low temperature of 8ºC for 12 hours.

The fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks for 12 days at a constant temperature of between 14-16ºC. Once the alcoholic fermentation is complete, the wine remains on its lees for a minimum of 4 months, during which batonnage is carried out weekly. Subsequently, the wine is clarified and filtered, respecting the wine's virtues to the fullest, before being bottled. This wine shows positive evolution in the bottle for at least three years.

The region of Matarraña in the province of Teruel, Aragón is privileged for its microclimate. With the best orientation for vineyards and an altitude of 600 meters above sea level, these vineyards are protected by the Beceite mountains from the humid winds near the coast, 50 km away, while still maintaining a Mediterranean influence. The clayey soil provides minerality and demands the vineyard produce its best grapes.

The White Wine Kolenda Lagar d´Amprius is a fresh and elegant wine. It presents intense aromas of tropical fruits, citrus, and floral notes, accompanied by a subtle minerality from the clay soils of the region. On the palate, it is a balanced wine, with good acidity and a long, persistent finish.

This wine is ideal for pairing with fish, seafood, salads, and light dishes, perfect for special occasions or everyday enjoyment. The recommended serving temperature is 6-8ºC to fully appreciate all its qualities.
