Pesquera Albillo Mayor 2022 is an exceptional white wine produced by Tinto Pesquera, a winery with a rich history in the Ribera del Duero. This wine symbolizes the winery's commitment to revitalizing the Albillo Mayor variety, an ancient white grape that has been forgotten in recent years. The grapes come from vineyards located near Pesquera de Duero, where the continental climate and clay-limestone soils favor the production of wines with great concentration and balance.
The harvest is done manually, carefully selecting the clusters at their optimum ripeness. Once harvested, the grapes are subjected to a gentle press, and fermentation takes place in French oak barrels, where the wine remains for several months on its fine lees. This aging process adds volume and complexity as well as a creamy texture to the wine, while maintaining the characteristic freshness of the variety.
In tasting terms, Pesquera Albillo Mayor 2022 opens with aromas reminiscent of ripe white fruits like pear and apple, complemented by citrus notes, white flowers, and subtle hints of vanilla and dried fruits, resulting from its aging in wood. On the palate, it is broad, balanced, and elegant, with a texture that invites enjoyment of its good acidity and a long finish, full of mineral nuances. This wine is especially versatile for pairing with seafood, baked fish, rice dishes, poultry, and soft cheeses, thereby highlighting its freshness and structure in every sip.
