"The 2022 Blanc d'Orto Brisat differs from the regular Blanc d'Orto in the skin contact, which here is 21 days in stainless steel, and the wine matured in used 500-liter barrels for six months. Furthermore, this was selected from a specific plot planted in 1948, and the wine has more balanced parameters, 13.55% alcohol, a pH of 3.42 and 4.8 grams of acidity. In my book, if you do skin contact, this is the way to do it, not overpowering the wine, adding nuance, weight and complexity but keeping the DNA of the grape and the place. Well done, guys! 1,500 bottles produced. It was bottled in the spring of 2024."

Product Description:

"Light yellow golden delicious apple, Asian pear, fennel. Mediterranean concentration, fresh herbs and white pepper aromas pop on palate. Salty lemon and chamomile surrender to an excellent grip, with medium body and a melded tension that makes this wine mouthwatering and luscious. A wonderfully, lip-smacking gastronomic wine." - Distributor Website "After being destemed and crushed, grapes are stored in stainless steel tanks, macerating the must with the skins during a moon cycle, 29 days. The must is transformed into wine thanks to the native yeasts presents on the grapes (25 ºC max). Ageing After pressing, aged on lees for 6 months, lees removed afterwards and 4 more months of tank ageing. Not aged in oak barels in order to discover the taste of grape tanins." Winery.
